You are going to have to get under the truck for this one. First off it is on the drivers side of the pickup, you will see this arm coming out of the transmission, this is called the throwout bearing fork. You will see an elongated bolt going into a kind of knuckle on that fork. That is your clutch linkage adjustment, tighten/loosen as needed.

Tip: You want it so that when the clutch is aligned with you brake petal it starts to disengage the clutch, and as soon as you release it from the floor board you want it to start to bite immediately. If you don't do this part right, you will burn your Throwout bearing out, along with the clutch. SO YOU ARE WARNED! But it is really easy to have a friend press the clutch and you stay under it and adjust as needed. I really hope this helped, it is kind of hard to explain.
