Subject:      Re: Clutch cylinder rebuild kits?

Yes, both clutch master and slave cylinder kits are available, but not easily obtainable. I've rebuilt both.

As to the slave cylinder, the price differential between the rebuild kit and a new cylinder is around $40, so going with the new cylinder makes sense to me.
