For the time being.

Travis (huntingman) did the swap and it was a major pain.

I decided to get my master and slave from a stealership in hopes of being OK.

:fingerscrossed:

 

$250 for my master cylinder from the stealership!!

 

Oh man.

Just got off the phone with the stealership.

They say both parts are discontinued, they suggest Napa, which the stealership said would be even more expensive than their quotes.

To the tune of $600...



Wow. Wth?!?

 

Alright...well....never trust a stealership.

Napa quoted me $120 and $60.

 

My rhinopac from rockauto was only $35. I can already tell it won't last very long though....pedal feels like the piston 'catches' in the bore.

 

I had the same issue woth mine last time my slave went out.

Just make sure whatever slave you get has the cast metal housing and not that cheap plastic crap.

The metal is the only one that seems to last.

 

Nice, thats really good to know!

How about a master cylinder? You (or anyone else, really) have advise on what master cylinder to get?

Mine is currently leaking very minimally, so I figure I may as well replace that as well.

 

Try a rebuild kit...? Took my factory one apart after I swapped it out, and its really just a couple of o-rings that were flattened out...

 

Next time I do my slave, I wanna see if i can fit a custom GM style Tilton internal slave. I'll do all the measurements and hopefully post some worthwhile results. Tired of these mass produced plastic pieces of junk...

 

Most aftermarket masters will work just fine.

Its just all the heat that the plastic slave is exposed to seems to damage it.
