slave cylinder for mu

[newnexenrubber]

hey guys how hard is it to change a slave cylinder on a 2.8 turbo diesel mu or do i have to take it to mechanic

Is this a clutch or drum brake slave? I haven't done one on my isuzu but I have changed them on previous vehicles and they are relatively easy. The big things is try to remove any spilt fluid asap as it will damage paint etc, and bleed them afterwards. With drum brakes I found the big spring was the trickiest and hardest part ... lost lots of skin, damn knuckles.

clutch

The clutch slave is easy to change. I just changed one last week. Too bled make sure you do the nipple on the firewall first then the slave cylinder

cheers for the help everyone

Only catch is if you master cylinder is on its last legs. Then the master will let air in as you try to bleed it. If you end in an endless loop while trying to bleed replace the master as well. Should be a 30 minute job including beer

[Captcol]

Is that including the warmup beer, the doing the job beer, the clean up beer and finally the job well done beer?

[geeves]

yes but dont test drive till following morning after that much beer
