    Clutch disk and clutch MC line question.

    How thick is the wear section of a new vs. worn out clutch disk? Also, where the heck do you buy the line that goes from the Master Cylinder to the fluid reservoir?

    I'm doing a trans swap and these are the only two questions that I have to get cleared up in the next week when I have use of a garage, so Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Unless you know it to be really low mileage, use a new pressure plate and clutch for the swap. There's too much labor involved in replacing the clutch to install a used clutch.

    The lines from the master cylinder to the clutch are parts 34326755555 and 21521156673. Your local dealer should be able to get them in 3-4 days if they don't have them in stock. Or you can probably find used parts at a salvage yard.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      Ok, cool. The guy that I got the engine and trans from said the clutch still had lots of life left in it, but I was thinking maybe I should just get a new one. Thanks for the exact part numbers too. I'll just go ahead and get a new line. I've gotten new everything else minus the actual trans and shift linkage (got new bushings, etc), I may as well go ahead and get a new line.
