Default Hydraulic Clutch in an old CJ?

Has anyone ever done this? I have a CJ3B thats sitting on top of a 71 CJ5 frame and running gear. I want to convert my old manual clutch to a hydraulic one. Is there any tips or tricks you have? Maybe parts that you have used? I have the Buick V6 in it with a T90 4spd. I noticed while its flexed out that the clutch isn't so easy to use so I am guessing its binding up, which I hear is typical. Thanks in advance for the help!

About the only way I've heard of doing the conversion, is to swap in a AX-15 or NV3550 tranny. Both are hydraulic clutched tranny's.. That's teh only what I've heard of doing it. There also both 5 speeds.

Have you checked out Advanced Adapters web site? That would be another place to look. They might have a kit for your tranny..
