Default 1989 fuse box problem

I guess this is pretty common but my 1989 jeep cherokee has a leaking clutch master cylinder that is ruining my fuse box!
Where can i find a replacement fuse block? mine is pretty rough. if i have to restore mine is there any trick to getting it out? does it just unplug?
any info would be great as old man winter is barrelling down on us here in michigan!
Thanks,
jeff

Easiest thing would be to call around to some junkyards and see if they have any jeeps you can steal it from, they should be the same form 89 to 96.. But, depending on where you are in Michigan (Im from Sanford, about 8 miles from midland) that is easier said than done, I will go look around on some sites and see if I can find you one..

I've got one for sale out of a 93 if you want it, easiest way without having to cut and splice wires is pull the whole wiring harness from in the dash, which is how mines pulled out.

Thanks for the tips! It looks like mine just has 2 big phillips head screws and the block would unplug without getting into the dash. Is this accurate? The truck does fine just every now and then something goes out and i replace a mucky fuse. I had a new clutch master cylinder put in when I had a new clutch and it ended up leaking again......i've tried to shield it but want to fix it once and for all!
anyone know of a good replacement clutch master cylinder that doesn't leak?
