94 YJ Clutch fluid leaking
 

Hello all
My 94 YJ 2.5, 5spd is leaking clutch fluid and would like to draw upon the
experience here. The 94 YJ has a sealed system and requires the replacement
of the clutch master/slave cylinder and hydraulic throw out bearing which is
all in one according to Chilton's. Since it is a sealed system, I assume if
I am leaking clutch fluid then I would need to replace this system. Is this
correct? I have been unable to find this part online; does anybody have a
favorite online parts house? I am in Hawaii and parts are ridiculously high.
I assume I should replace the clutch and pressure plate while the
transmission and t-case are removed. Is this correct and are there any other
components that should be replaced at this time? I appreciate any help you
can give me I intend to tackle this on an upcoming weekend. Thanks for your
time

I thought that 94 was the year they went to the external slave for
both the I6 and the 4-banger but that wouldn't be my first
misinformation <g> . With the 4.0, you still have the "sealed" system
- master and slave - but the slave is external to the bell housing and
can be changed without pulling the tranny. Advanced Auto for one
carries the separate master and slave cylinders. There is a plactic
tube between the two cylinders and the fittings are a push fit with a
roll pin to lock the tube in place. It's simple to replace either one
or both. The dealer sells a "set" which is pre-filled and includes
the tube for (last I heard) $225 - $250. The Advanced Auto cost for
both the master and the slave was about $140. Expensive little
buggers. The setup I'm running came off a '94 YJ, so the 4.0L version
was definitely the external set.

It's easy enough to tell which you have (internal or external). One
the left rear of the bell housing, the internal version has a hose and
a bleed nipple while the external version has a cylinder about 4
inches long X 1 inch diameter on the outside.

Re: 94 YJ Clutch fluid leaking
 

Hi Jim,
The fluid used in the clutch hydraulics is brake fluid. Like Will
said you lucked out for your year, '94 is external, and master and slave
are sold separate at partsamerica.com:

Re: 94 YJ Clutch fluid leaking
 

This could have been a late or mid-model-year change. The best thing is to
crawl under the vehicle and verify which system he has, before trying to
order parts. I would replace both master and slave, so as to get another
ten years out of the system. In humid Hawaii, it wouldn't hurt to flush the
system periodically, to postpone the inevitable.
