Flexible line. (New car blues)

Ok, the new car blues are starting to set in, Big time. first the accel pump now the clutch master, slave and flexible line.

I've called everywhere but of course nobody has anything. One day I'll learn that nobody's gonna stocks much old car stuff anymore.

Any tip or suggestions on finding the flexible clutch slave cylinder hose. Gonna hit the bone yard in the AM but thats where I got the last bad one

They show flexible Clutch line for 81-85 from $9.84 - $15.47, 3 of the 4 of them are in stock to. They do also have 79-80 if you need them, little more money unless you grab the last closeout one for $8.17.

Discount Code 1074273891790 expires August 5th.

They are also great for all the other parts you may need and have very good prices.

I guess my main question is does anyone know of compatible parts that might readily be in stock at a parts store.

Thanks

Guess I should have mentioned that I'm on my bike in Albuquerque NM and RockAuto, LLC 6680 Odana Road Madison, WI 53719 is kind of a far ride for me and theres probably not much of a way I'll get shipping before I have to be at my desk at 9:15 Sunday morning.

There's a couple good shipping options here in town. I was trying to avoid another junkyard piece or 7 days shipping and handling. those options I got covered.

I was looking for something I may be overlooking.

Glad you found one. I was going to suggest taking the old one in and trying to match it up with something else. Happy motoring.

I've usually gotten stuff from rockauto and/or mazdatrix in 2 days, maybe 3.

Good news on the NAPA part. Sometimes you get one of the experienced guys who know how to dig out stuff like that. I had the same experience at NAPA while looking for the rear wheel bearing collars that didn't show up in the catalog. The vet knew some other way to dig them out and I had them within a couple hours. But that kind of thing never happens at Kragens or Autozone.
