Hydraulic Clutch

Just reading Retro Car magazine and have found an advert for the TR shop, which is offering a triumph clutch repair kit, which by looks of the photo includes master and slave cylinders, clevis pins, and hose for £50. Anyone have any idea if this could be used to operate the clutch on a type 9 gearbox? I am using a floor mounted pedal box from kit car builders and am having difficult making a cable clutch work and am considering changing to hydraulic.

Just a thought?

Has anybody used this type setup with any success for their clutch?

Wilwood clutch master cylinder


Wilwood pull type clutch slave

I have a left hand drive chassis, and the clutch cable isn't long enough...

good excuse, eh?

Have you tried giving Kit car Builders a call for more info? Seeing as the Type 9 is probably the most commonly used gearbox now I'd have thought they'd have plenty of info for you!

HTH,

Thanks, All sorted. Stuck with cable, the pedal box ass for hyd and cable are different and not possible to change from cable to hyd without buying a new assembly.

Found detailed instructions on the Luego website and have adapted to fit the avon.
