Pull Type Clutch Problem

Hey guys need some help here, I was driving my car and encountered a problem my clutch pedal was sticking to de floor I pulled over to check the problem, the break fluid bottle wasn't low but I wasn't getting any pressure cause the pedal was still sticking to the floor so I called a wrecker and took it home after doing some checks and all ended with the same result I decided to take off the gearbox to check the clutch that's when I saw the clip rings popped out.

Has this ever happen to any of you guys?
What is the best solution here?
Are they any upgraded clips?
Will this happen again?
How Can I stop this from happening again?

This is very very very common. I hate to say search...but search. You need to buy a clutch fork stop - https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...5-shipped.html

Yes i have the springs, I was just doing some searching and came across a guy who had the same problem and said its a simple solution use 3 rings behind the clip instead of one. The install calls for one ring, using 3 seems to help the pressure on the clip. We tried it and it worked great, no more issues.

are they any other options ?

I use 2 springs. They are not easy to come by so not sure where you would get extra springs.

Does that solve the problem from happening again?

Yes it does. The clutch fork is over-extending and popping that off generally during fast power shifting but it has happened other times. Install that according to the instructions and the clutch fork gets stopped by the bolt and can't pop off the clip. I've never read/seen it happen after installing that fork stop.
