91 XJ clutch slave
My other fixer-upper is a 91 XJ with no options. 4.0, 5 speed 2 wheel
drive.
I got it really cheap, but it isn't too bad. On the drive home, the
clutch wasn't 100%. I could pull it into neutral but I had to pump the
clutch like crazy and watch the tach to get it into the next gear. It
wasn't double clutching, it was clutch frenzy.
I replaced the master and it didn't fix the problem.So I bought a slave
and plan to install it soon. I haven't done this for many years and
never on a Cherokee. Is there anything I should know?

A bunch of cuss words??
Seriously, when you have the slave off, be sure to flush the line and
master really well - those slaves put a ton of crap into the fluid which
will gum up and/or detstroy your new master and slave in short order.
Also, for the cost I would think really hard about replacing the pressure
plate and disc while I was in there - pulling the tranny and tc back/out
is enough of a PITA to make it a serious consideration. Check the
condition of the pilot bearing/bushing.

Re: 91 XJ clutch slave
Thank you Will
Unfortunately, I used up all the familiar cuss words changing the water
pump and clutch master. Could you forward me some new ones for the
clutch slave?
The slave and release bearing are one unit, but I plan to check the
disc and pp at the same time.
