The bloke said that over time the tangs on the pressure plate were the bearing sits go hard and it could be putting pressure on the mc but i would have thought it would just bust the sc out of the bracket if it was that hard i find it strange aswell mate

I'm only thinking forward as i was told the clutch could be causing my master cylinder failure

As anyone done this job? Haynes manual isn't that clear Just wanting some tips before I start

I've had 3 sets in last 2 years

You will be lucky if you get any that last 12 month

I don't fancy it myself but If it needs doing I will have to crack on I have a shogun to run about in so I won't be stuck for transport

I'm in to minds now to change the clutch or drive it and see if it leaks again but then if it does it's more expense I just can't understand why the slave doesn't break instead of the master Also the gearbox looks hard to remove lol

I've just been told that the pressure plate could have stiffened over time and that could be blowing the seals in the master cylinder So now I'm looking for a clutch just in case lol

Well the slave/master fitted again Hopefully 3rd time lucky

Rang my local motor factors they can get one at £93 The ones I bought were £40 so that's probably why the seals fail cheap crap

We're you going to get the oem part from There are loads on eBay but doesn't say if they are oem parts

I don't have a problem with pedal height it just leaks at the seal on pedal end after 2 days I'm going to look for a different supplier The two I've put on are obviously cheaply made crap

We're did you get the bearmach one from

You can't split anything or it's knackered I can't understand how your rod keeps coming out of master When you put it through the bulk head connect the rod before locking the master in place but don't forget start at the gearbox first

The 180 only fits up to YA999999

I don't know but I was told a 180 won't fit late models I will check the chassis comparison

I honestly don't know what the difference is but when I bought mine I was told the 180 code is for the early model up to year 2000 The clutch arm should move back and forth with your fingers i used a mixture of wd40 / engine oil / and plus gas spray then just put a piece of small tube over the...

You should start at gearbox end when refitting master/slave cylinder but keep the master above the slave at all times Did you free up the clutch arm before fitting You also need part ending 160 it's the later model you need 180 will not fit

Don't believe it The master cylinder is leaking again !! At the clutch pedal but now my gears are more or less impossible The clutch arm is fine moves back and forth with no effort 2 fingers I don't know if there a crap make or there is more to it They last a couple of days then caput it starts...
