Title: Clutch master to slave cylinder line
Post by: superles on December 03, 2007, 10:54:58 AM

Information for a 1990 YJ with 4.2

The rubber flex line in the center of my clutch line is leaking.
The parts stores doesn't carry these and send you to the OEM which is expensive. I may remove and flair the lines and put a new rubber line in the middle.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure if it's anything like the setup on the rangers, but if it is...you can replace it with braided stainless line. Go over to Mopac and order a set of Russell Performance Clutch Fittings (Part #640281) and then pick up a braided line of whatever length you need. If you need longer than what they have in stock, then I'd suggest hitting up Greenline for a custom length hose.

This means that you're basically going to have to pull your transmission (if it's an internal slave cylinder), so I'd suggest new master and slave cylinders.

This worked in my tbird, and I'll be doing it in the ranger if I need to ever replace the line.
