Has anybody ever heard of a Wagner Lockheed slave cylinder? I have one on my ride and its pitted up pretty bad. I have honed it out and rebuilt it but it still leaks. I looked everywhere on line but all I can find are master cylinders. This is just a 6 or 7 inch round cylinder with two fittings on one end and the piston on the other. Do they even make these anymore? Does anybody have on lying around? Any info would be great. Thanks
We see them in the parts buisness as older parts on trucks, 1/2 ton to 3 ton and forklifts, etc., and they normally have a casting number that can be crossed, if not, a comptent parts store should be able to match in our master picture book of slave cylinders. If not one of the machine shop can put a stainless sleeve in it, provided you can find the proper kit.
The machine shop guy said there wasn't enough meat on it to sleeve it. I will look again, but I didnt see one casting number on it other than just the name itself
NAPA should have a book with pictures of hundreds of different hydraulic brake and clutch cylinders. You'll have to ask them to dig it out and compare yours to the ones in the book. You might get lucky.
327-365, do you have a part number from Napa? That where I went and they couldnt find anything that was similar?
I used to have a Lockheed slave cylinder in an Austin Sprite. You might check an Austin or MG parts catalog and see if it is what you are looking for. Your description is similar to what I remember. Here is a link for you: http://www.victoriabritish.com/features/sm/smcl3-1976-mg-midget.htm
My notes say... Slave Cylinder for Clutch $55 NAPA 33723 FD-27009 Looks like this on SBC Ansen type mount
I also have the Ansen set up but mine is bigger than what your showing me and I have (2) fittings at the opposite end of the cup.
The pre '63 Chevy trucks had a slave cylinder that was popular, see if what you got matches up to a new one. Some old truck resto suppliers probably have them in stock. Bob
it may help to identify if you would post some pictures. what is the bore? this is the early 60's chevy truck slave that has already been suggested: i have seen this slave on a few cars ,it is late 50's Ford f100:
