1993 wrangler hydraulic clutch line

by jerrymh on Thu Sep 11 08:38:33 PDT 2008

I replaced the clutch and internal slave/throwout bearing on my 93 wrangler 4.0. The hydraulic line from the master cylinder has a quick disconnect feature to connect the line to the line coming out of the bellhousing that goes to the slave. I reconnected the line to the new slave and when I tried to bleed the clutch and pressure was put on the line, the line came apart at the connection. I would like to meet the guy who designed this junk quick disconnect line. I see no way of by passing this connection. I checked with the local dealer and no one has these lines either. The closest one is at a dealership in Lebanon, Ohio. The price for this hydraulic line is also very expensive. $148.00 and it looks like it actually may be worth $20.00 tops. Any ideas out there? Thanks
