Default Clutch Slave Cylinder Leak

So I have a 90 cherokee with the 5 speed I just dropped the trans to replace the clutch slave got everything back together and it is pooring out fluid worse then the old did. Is there something special about getting the lines to seat in or any ideas as to why this would happen? I am pulling the tranny again tomorrow after work to see what I can see but much thanks for any help.

Yeah it is the same It was an easy fix Like an idiot I put the O Ring in then the line that's why it was leaking. Pulled it back apart cleaned everything back up put the O ring on the line first and works like a champ now.

I know you got it fixed but was yours plastic or aluminum? I killed 4 of the plastic cheesy ones and the found a company that can get an aluminum one for the same price and havent had any problems since.
