I have the JMC hydraulic clutch kit on my car (which is apart right now), and it has never worked right. Not enough travel to completely disengage the clutch. So I was thinking about a hydraulic t/o bearing, but those are more expensive than I thought. Now I'm thinking I'd like to try to get a new slave cylinder, slightly smaller diameter, and try to make that work. Just a generic hydraulic cylinder. I looked on the internet, and all I could find was huge industrial cylinders. I know somebody must sell small cylinders, anybody know who that might be?

They also sell the pusher slave cylinder. Didn't look for it.

That one is 7/8" bore, same as the one I have. Is there no 3/4" bore slave cylinder available on the planet for purchase?

Heres a hydraulic clutch setup a friend of mine is using on his car. Hes had it for I think 2 years now, and it still works good after a few trips to the track and plenty of street time.
