Angry 'Pulled' the SE out today



Literally had it pulled onto a flatbed tow truck. Clutch slave cylinder failed AGAIN. The guys place where I store it was being prepped for his daughters graduation party and I had about 20 minutes to get it out of there before people started showing up, no time to fix it on site, no tow strap etc. I first had to put a slave cylinder on it 4 years ago, got it from victoria british, it failed in 2 years, put a beck arnley on last year, failed in under 12 months, and I somehow managed to track a wagner part down in less than a day and put that on yesterday. This leads me to my question, does anybody make a slave cylinder that doesn't suck?

How long have yours lasted?

Had to change the master cylinder on my 85 RX-7 in 2000. I went ahead and change the slave cylinder (used OEM parts) at the same time. No problems in the past 8 years.
