BA10 5speed slave ????
Ok i put about 200 miles on the jeep today as I rolled back into town the jeep didnt respond when I hit the clutch. I popped it out of gear couldnt get it go back into any gears. I shut it off at the light it went through the gears just fine. I restarted it in gear with it lurching forward it works and it got me across rev matching my shifting. I pull in the driveway pop the hood My master cylinder is dry. So My question is where did it all go. I checked Around the master and under the dash it didnt look as if it were looking there. So im guessing it has to be the slave. Any Idea what Should I order is there a kit? I looked for a slave for it all I found was a clutch control unit Im not sure if that is the slave or something else. LOL as always this is my daily driver so I need to get it back on the road soon and dont have to the funds to put it in the shop so any help would be much appreciated.

Before I did my ax15 swap in my 87 I had the same problem. Turned out to be the line running from the master to the tranny was leaking. It starts out as a brass line (maybe another metal?) but as it gets under the jeep it turns to rubber. The rubber has a hard exterior that will wear out over time and will leak the clutch fluid out of the line itself. This is where I would look first.
