i am looking at having a used master/slave/reservior/lines sent to me from a parts place. The fluid has been drained.

Can you bleed the system?

If so, how?

I'm reasonably sure there's a bleeder on the slave. IIRC, mine gravity bled pretty well.

On ebay by searching 1992/3 dodge diesel --under items in ebay stores--scroll down-- a slave cylinder new aftermarket for $58.00. If they are selling just the slave, the lines must disconnect, which means you can bleed reasonably. I think? It is offerd by clutch city online. Hope this helps!

I replaced my slave and master cylinders seperately. Good old part store parts. The slave has a bleeder on it. Made it a cinch.
