Welcome to the Zone > . Post some pictures when you get a chance. Also, add your truck vitals to your signature, it may help on some future questions.

Assuming that it is most likely the same or very similar to the FSB one, here is the procedure for the FSB:

From my Service Manuals:

Removal

1. From the inside of the cab, remove the cotter pin retaining the clutch master cylinder push rod to the clutch pedal lever. disconnect the push rod and remove the bushings.

2. Remove the two nuts retaining the clutch reservoir and master cylinder assembly to the fire wall.

3. From the engine compartment, remove the clutch reservoir and master cylinder assembly from the fire wall. Note the clutch tubing routing to the ***** cylinder.

4. Push the clutch ***** cylinder rearward to disengage the two retaining tabs of the release cylinder from the retainer bracket and from the recess in the bell housing lugs and then slide outward to remove. Disengage the push rod from the release lever as the ***** cylinder is removed.

5. Remove the clutch hydraulic system from the vehicle.

Installation

1. Position the clutch fluid reservoir and master cylinder assembly into the firewall. From inside the cab install the two nuts and tighten.

2. Correctly route the clutch tubing and ***** cylinder to the bell housing.

NOTE: Care must be taken during the routing of the nylon line to keep away from the engine exhaust system components.

3. Install the ***** cylinder by pushing the ***** cylinder push rod into the cylinder, engage the push rod into the release lever and slide the ***** cylinder into the bell housing lugs, seat the cylinder into the recess in the lugs.

NOTE:When installing a new hydraulic system, the ***** cylinder contains a shipping strap that prepositions the push rod for installation and also provides a bearing insert. Following installation of the new ***** cylinder, the first actuation of the clutch pedal will break the shipping strap and give normal system operation.

4. clean and apply a light film of SAE30 engine oil or equivalent to the master cylinder push rod bushing.

5. From the inside of the cab, install the bushing on the clutch lever pedal. Connect the clutch master cylinder push rod to the clutch pedal lever and install the cotter pin

6. Check the clutch reservoir and add fluid if required. Depress the clutch pedal at least ten times to verify smooth operation and proper release.

Hope this helps, Ford usually does things the same on multiple vehicles.

Good luck,
