clutch slave cylinder

[Dano]

Hi All,
just ordered a new (rebuilt) clutch slave cylinder for my Jeep. It's a 1983 CJ7 w/ GM 151 . My parts guy ordered the wrong one, even though the part #'s said it was for my GM 151 engine. The mounting holes on mine are off to the side, where the one in most catalogs have the bore in the middle of both mounting holes. At least 4WD catalog has the right one pictured Part# croj3241867.

Anyway my question is, has anybody order a rebuild kit lately? From who?

Is the bore size, and pushrod the same as the older Wrangler's slaves?

The guy at 4WD says they sell a kit (by Crown) but he has no specs. Even the Crown site says "1982". That's it!
Rockauto website says they have one, but again no specs. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

The slave with the mounting on opposite sides is for the AMC 150 . The one you need fits either the GM 151 or AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l .

Sounds like someone wasn't paying attention and thought AMC 150 and GM 151 were the same.

I ordered a slave from Rockauto and got the correct one.

Thanks for the reply. I didn't think to tell my parts guy to check for AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l engine. I didn't realize they were the same.
I too ordered from Rockauto. Still looking for any info on that rebuild kit.

I've ordered rebuild kits for both the slave and the master cylinders from Napa. I don't know who the manufacturer is, but they are complete and correct.

On a side note, the rebuild kits are almost as much as the new units...only a couple dollars difference between the slave cylinder and the rebuild kit for it.
