Having had to pull/adjust several Spit clutch slaves.... you'd need triple jointed arms (or is it quadruple) to reach around the frame rails to reach the cylinder. As part of the job I'd get one of

I fixed my slave putting the cap back as well as I could and welding a ring of 22 guage steel that would just slip over the cap when hot. This held the original cap on better than new. I staked the r

If you find out let us know. Although Joe is sending me a good one, I'm sure there are others out there who could use one. Also, since I need to get a kit anyway, I might as well get one with a cap.
