With the transmission in neutral, it doesn't matter if the clutch is engaged or not. Also, if you jack up one rear wheel and put a jack stand under the axle housing, the wheel can spin as the engine turns and the truck won't move. When I'm working by myself and need to hold the clutch or brake pedal down for some reason, I cut a piece of broom stick or a 2 X 4 to length to wedge between the seat and the pedal.
