Defenderers,

I'm looking for a new slave cylinder, there are loads out there. How do I buy the right one please?

91 110 200TDI with a ? gearbox
 
Lt77 box and Paddocks land rover have a good system for finding the right slave. Usually a choice at different prices.
 
Make sure you buy a quality brand as well. Lucas/TRO are OEM. The cheap britpart/bearmach use seals which will start to leak after about a week.
 
A few months back I replaced my master and slave cylinders. They are bearmach and I've had no problems.
 
hope u don’t mind me asking , as the subject has been mentioned

has anyone extended the bleed nipples location from the slave into a better location plse ,

have been trying to find out what the size of the bleed nipple and wondering if anyone may know plse

apologises once again @doriz and u didn’t mind me asking in ur thread

thks

i did all three parts in the same stuff a year ago, took less than a minute to bleed and no problems at all. Third part is the flexi.

No issue, and let's face it, it's a good idea.

thks, just can’t find the size of the bleed nipple

thks again
 
They bleed just fine, try your local motorfactors, I was after one and they got the right part from my reg, had it the next day, oem girling lucas 30 quid.

thks, a new genuine slave and hose has been ordered , am helping out a mate with a 200tdi

was just trying on the off chance ref the bleed nipple
 
I would be concerned with an extended bleeder pipe fracturing.
Ive done one slave and at least 3 masters all on the same car! never had any issues bleeding them.

it was only an idea but understand where ur coming from, it would of course be suitably clipped so it didn’t wave around , ie same way brake lines are fixed

but indeed a good point

Just remember when fitting the slave the nipple goes at the top, not that I fitted it upside down once you understand!
 
If you fit an extended bleed nipple, it is possible to stick a bit of rubber pipe on the end and run that up and fasten it to somewhere convenient, as long as you plug the end before leaving it.
 
IIRC, it is a PITA with the exhaust pipe in the way, unless I'm doing it wrong I can only move my flare nut spanner about 3mm in either direction.
