62 C10 235 ,3 speed, 1 1/16" bore slave cylinder..

Looks like I can just hone it and replace the 2 seals. Put the snapring back in and re-install.

Where can I get these seals ?

Google just shows me complete units for sale.

Fattboyzz, contact Dixie Bearings in Austel/Lithia Springs.

They've helped me in the past with oddball O rings and seals when they were located in Doraville. I took my old stuff in and they matched them up.

Looks like they're merged or something with Applied Industrial Technologies

If you do get some info or sizes come back and let us know. I have replaced 2 slave cylinders and would prefer to rebuild if I can.

Any parts store can supply a kit for those clutch cylinders. Its a good idea to put a kit in the clutch master cyl. also. Get a brake cyl. hone & run it through the bore a little. Clutch cyl. rubber parts wear out sooner then brake parts. They make a full trip of the cylinder each time they are used. The brake cylinder cups don't move much, they just apply pressure.
Consequently the bore in the clutch cyls. do not corrode like brake cyls do.

The dual purpose master cylinder is new. The old one was so coroded ,it was pretty much welded together . Rear wheel cylinders too frown

Im gonna rebuild the original slave cylinder when I get time.

I dropped a part return off at Autozone and grabbed a new slave cyl.

They said no carry on a rebuild kit frown
