I've heard that rebuild kits often don't go over well, but I've never personally tried it. What exactly is leaking? The master/slave, or the line somewhere?

Mychal1216km · 02-07-2008, 04:34 PM

Not exactly sure what is making it leak, but I'm going to replace it all because I heard if you replace one replacing it all would be a good idea.

B-Man0660 · 02-07-2008, 05:47 PM

Well the slave and master, but if the lines are fine, just keep them, you may wanna get some SS lines if you can swing it.

Mychal1216km · 02-07-2008, 06:05 PM

What is the exact name of them, SS _____ Line and do I have to get that from a Mitsu dealer or does Rock Auto sell it too?

Is it the Clutch Hydraulic Hose that is on Rock Auto's website?

The "Clutch Hydraulic Hose" is the one you want. Other than the 3S aftermarket parts suppliers, I'm not sure where else you'd go to find a SS hose, but I'm not sure you really need one. Theoretically, the SS hose should give you a firmer feel at the pedal because the SS hose won't swell like the stock rubber hose supposedly does. I installed a SS hose on another 3S a couple months ago, and I really couldnt' tell any difference.

To me, replacing both cylinders and the hose at the same time is kinda like replacing all the tail light bulbs because one of them burned out. But that's up to you. On my car, the Master Cylinder went bad 8 years ago at 118K miles, and I replaced it at that time. At 208K, the hose showed slight signs of leaking, so I replaced it. But I'm still running with the original stock Slave with over 208K miles on it.

When I bought my car it had a crack in that, didn't cost a ton to have it replaced. But seemed pretty hard to get on and off if you dont have the right tool.
