I also want to add a clutch master cylinder so I can use a hydraulic slave cylinder. I have seen several "universal" type setups (like the one in the link below) but I am worried about the pedal alignment. https://www.fabquest.com/tci-universal-manual-combo-brake-and-clutch-pedal-assembly.htmlHas anyone us used one of these? I have seen a lot of the single brake pedal adapters that use the stock pedal with the automatic trans but not any that use both the stock pedals.

I haven't mounted it yet, but it seems like a good fit. I also bought a Toyota clutch master, because of it's hose mounting configuration and it was dirt cheap. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2015 Posts: 208 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2015 Posts: 208 | Whitedog do you remember what year of Jeep?

Not to mention the price. I wanted something with more of a factory look. Here's a picture of them compared to the OE placement. http://s1074.photobucket.com/user/w...amp;_suid=147883898132707876844700499707I know I'll have to tackle some firewall reinforcing and master cylinder placement, but it should be a fairly clean setup when it's all done. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 187 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 187 |
