CYLINDERS
The clutch master cylinder is very important piece, this is the first connection you have between the pedal and the clutch. The clutch master cylinder moves hydraulic fluid through the clutch and the slave cylinder. If the clutch master cylinder leaks you will notice right away. This is a very easy part to install to get your clutch back to a stock feel. When your clutch gets old and it starts to have issues, the clutch might feel like it is missing something. Then it might be time to get a new clutch master cylinder.
A slave cylinder installs on your transmission and actuates your clutch pressure plate when the clutch pedal is pressed. On a factory 6 speed 02M or 02Q transmission the clutch slave cylinder is located on the inside of the transmission's bellhousing. The slave cylinder actuates each time the clutch engages. This setup is not ideal for a performance vehicle. The Clutch Masters Hydraulic Slave Cylinder Kit was built with performance in mind. The hydraulic slave cylinder is a single contained unit that incorporates both the slave cylinder and throw out bearing into one. Once installed you expect a softer pedal feel, better clutch engagement, and smoother shifting. Please note the transmission must be removed from the vehicle to install the Hydraulic Slave Cylinder. Unit includes the following: Aluminum Housing and Piston High Speed, Roller Bearing, Steel Braided lines, Aluminum Adapter with hardware Advantages when using a Hydraulic bearing: Less moving parts such as the clutch fork and release bearing, as well as a wearing pivot ball. Softer pedal feel Consistent pressure for easier and smoother engagement. Reduced shock to the drivetrain
Pre-Filled Systems includes a master cylinder and slave cylinder, connected by the hydraulic line. No additional components are required, however, the pre-filled system may also include features such as a pulsation damper, heat shield, or neutral safety switch. These added components aren’t generally included with the individual master or slave cylinder. The design of these components makes conventional bleeding difficult and time consuming. For example, if the built-in pedal pulsation damper becomes contaminated, the system becomes nearly impossible to bleed. In addition, it is especially difficult to remove air from the damper. The pre-filled system eliminates these difficulties.
