    Clutch line issue help!

    Hey guys, I began to finish swapping my euro car and ran into a problem with the clutch line that goes directly into the slave cylinder. It seems as if it was just so old and rusted that the metal line just broke, I've looked everywhere but cant find a line that has the that metal line going into the braided line with the same fittings. If anyone can help me get a part number or suggestion it would help alot since I'm on a big deadline, Thanks!

    Here are some pictures

    There are many options for this line. Oem style ( I recommend blunttech) or stainless steel braided options from Catuned, rogue, uuc etc. Should be easy to find one.

      Check Oreily auto parts if you have one local.

        Yeah local would be quicker but I have stopped relying on my local stores due to high prices, inferior quality, if they even have it at all. Hopefully it's better where you're at. I'm just used to ordering everything from the u.s. and waiting a few days.
        If you ever need any part #s use realoem, or even Google sometimes.

            should be the same as any US spec car.

            ^ should work fine, or similar.

                piggybacking on this thread:

                Whats the easiest way to install a slave onto a ZF with it in the car? Looks like I'm going to have to either pick the motor up with a cherry picker, or drop the subframe.. cant get it in there!!

                  I was able to replace it just fine.

                      I didn't find it hard, use an extension to get at the hardware.

                        Correct, I didn't find it that hard at all. Sounds like something is weird with the position of your trans.
