I just installed a new master cyclinder and slave cylinder today on my 02 2500 6spd . the question i have is i bleed the system and the pedal got hard but when i let the truck sit for about 5 minutes i have to pump a few time to be able to get it back into gear. another question i have is the straps on the slave cyclinder are they supposed to break up installation. please any help would be great.

 

When I installed mine in February when I had a 6 speed, now mush box, I installed the entire thing from Dodge. It was in two parts with a quick connect in the middle of the line between the MC and Slave. I left the plastic parts on to keep it straight. They did break when I apply the clutch the first time.

What I took out was one unit with no quick connect. Those things are hard to bleed when you change ends.

replace the thing as a complete unit, ether from dodge or south bend has a good HD unit. more often then not trying to bleed them doesn't work

 

My Biggest Problem Right Now Is That The Straps Have Not Broken Yet And Other People Say That They Broke The First Time They Pushed The Clutch

 

If you have air in the system it will compress were a liquid will not compress and it will snap off the plastic straps. I have replaced 8 or 10 on diff truck every one popped the straps

 

does anyone have any tricks to get the air out i have gotmore out but the straps still have not broke yet please help
