Clutch Slave Cylinder Rebuild Kits

Clutch Slave Cylinder Rebuild Kits: fix the leak instead of buying a whole new clutch

The slave cylinder is the hydraulic actuator that takes fluid pressure from the master cylinder and pushes the clutch release fork or bearing. When the seals inside it wear, you get a soft pedal, dragging clutch, or fluid weeping past the piston, and the clutch stops fully disengaging. That's where clutch slave cylinder rebuild kits come in: on many units you can replace the piston seals and rebuild the bore rather than throwing the whole cylinder away. On sealed or integrated units, a complete replacement slave is the honest fix instead.

What ThreePiece stocks

This category holds 44 products across 4 brands: Exedy (28 in stock), All Balls Racing (13), Performance Machine (2) and Wilwood (1). Current prices run from $27 to $466 for what is in stock now, which reflects both small seal-and-piston kits and complete slave assemblies. On the low and mid end, the All Balls Racing kit for the 87-90 Kawasaki ZX750 and the All Balls Racing kit for the 08-22 Kawasaki ZG1400 Concours are motorcycle rebuild kits at $40.99. On the car side, the Exedy OE slave cylinder for the 2009 Pontiac G8 V8 and the Exedy OE slave for the 2010-2015 Camaro SS 6.2L are full replacement units. The Wilwood pull-type slave cylinder and the Performance Machine chrome smooth clutch slave assembly sit at the top of the range.

How to choose

The first decision is rebuild kit versus complete slave. A rebuild kit is cheaper and keeps your original housing, which suits older or motorcycle applications like the Kawasaki units above. A complete slave cylinder is the simpler route when the bore is scored or the unit is a sealed OE design, as with the Exedy Pontiac and Chevrolet parts. Match the part to the exact vehicle and year, not just the make. Coverage in this range spans model years 1972 to 2023 and includes vehicles such as the Mazda RX-7, Mazda MX-5 Miata, Acura Integra, Nissan 240SX, Chevrolet Camaro, Subaru Forester, Honda Civic, Toyota Camry, Dodge Neon and Pontiac G8, plus Kawasaki, Yamaha and Suzuki motorcycle applications. 40 of the 44 products carry fitment data.

What else you may need

A slave rarely fails alone. If the clutch itself is worn, look at Clutch Components and Clutch Rebuild Kits. While the transmission or bellhousing is open it's worth checking the Flywheels. For hydraulic and hand-control parts on bikes, see Clutch Levers and Shift Components. All of these live under the main Drivetrain section.

Fitment and ordering

Confirm the part matches your exact year, make and model before ordering. If you're unsure whether you need a kit or a full slave, call fitment help at 813-535-5801 or use the contact page. All orders ship free, and Affirm and Katapult financing is available on the larger assemblies.
