Re: slave cylinder bore size??

Napa shows it could either be 1" or 1 1/16"

Re: slave cylinder bore size??

These are the best I have available. Also note, the slave cylinder almost always matches the bore size of the master cylinder. Generally hydraulic clutch linkage is not meant to multiply leverage, merely convey motion by means of incompressible liquid instead of mechanical linkage. If you have a way to measure the bore of the M/C you have, you want the same size slave.
