Anyone know about clutch lines?

[devstar66]

Hey guys haven't been on here in a while wanting to know if any of you guys have made their own clutch line from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder (ASKING THOSE WHO HAVE DONE AN AUTO TO MANUAL SWAP MAINLY) just really need to know this info so i can instead of buying the oem line from a salvage yard i would just make my own any suggestions would help thanks fellow CB7 drivers

Have you ever bent brake line? Same thing. It's not hard, the trick is to use a mandrel or a jig, and take your time, you want smooth flowing bends. It would, however, be easier and probably cheaper to just grab one from the JY, unless you have the piping, cutter, nuts and flare tool already.

since your asking, I am assuming, high pressure -AN hoses and fittings are not in your plans? or is it a possibility.

I ran high press hose from master to slave, no clutch dampner and
it worked fine. Virtually just need a descent amount of money.

Master Cylinder -AN Fitting = $7
Slave Cylinder -AN Fitting =$7
-AN Hose = $40

I went through a lot of fittings until i got the right ones.
Just an idea.

I did the auto to 5spd swap and had a braided stainless line custom made. Here's my response to a PM when a member asked me about it:


I got it from www.bonacoinc.com . Select the "quote" and "Stainless Braided Teflon". I bought -3an with a M12x1.0 concave MC end and a M10x1.0 concave SC end. BE SURE you are getting the correct fittings the first time because I accidentally ordered a convex for the slave instead instead of concave and had to order another custom adapter line. I purchased a 6' long line which is enough to route from the MC along the firewall all the way over to underneath the fusebox and looped around that black canister under there, and then along the inner fender over the motor mount and then back over along the top of the tranny and down to the slave. You could probably get by with a 4.5' - 5' line and have enough to work with.


If you don't see the fittings listed online give them a call, they can make pretty much anything you can imagine.

Thanks, fixed and updated post on new details. They changed their website a little.

Best bet is to call them...MAKE SURE at least one end is a swivel end so it can be screwed on without twisting the line.
