External Slave Cylinder

[Tyler Tafjen]

Hi guys,

 

I got a '86 2.5 with an AX-5 and 4x4, recently my master cylinder started leaking so i decided to replace both the master and slave cylinder. Looking at the Slave cylinder, it seems near impossible to reach the top bolt on the slave cylinder. Its an external cylinder. Does anyone have any ideas? Do I have to drop the tranny or can it be done?

 

Thank you

tried a half dozen socket extensions?

IIRC, last time I worked with one of those, wobble extensions were my best friend.

Wobble or about 3' of extension working from behind the crossmember
