Default 98-99 5peed dakota clutch set up tip...

So here's the deal I just had to replace the master cylinder and slave cylinder for my truck. It's the 98 Dakota 5.2 Liter. I couldn't find the entire set up anyplace and didn't have internet. After two weeks of searching the same junk yards for new trucks I found two. Here's a picture. If you see them grab them because you can not find the fittings anyplace.

You need a complete new clutch master cylinder and slave assembly its a one piece assembly that cant be taken apart just don't do it as you will find its almost impossible to get all the air out of the system. You never take it apart like in your picture as the system was made to not be serviceable or bleed.

Its a one piece sealed system also its tied up for assembly very hard to put back after its opened up as its installed tied up or you cant get it back together properly. After install just using the clutch breaks it open/snaps the tie strap

A new assembly is not very $$ so you are better off getting the new one and avoid the pain needed to get a used patched system back together

Around $115 rockauto.com I think most auto stores can get it also

you are wrong but correct at the same time, I bought both the slave and master seprate, and my slave has a bleeder screw.

that's a link to get the slave, from advanced auto parts. they also sell the master cylinder separate. so yeah. oh and in order to get the hose fitting on, you gotta use a heat gun. it's a heat hose,
