Pedal travel is long and spongy. The return is sticky. Who wants to play How Much Is This Shit Gonna Fucking Cost Me?

I should have also mentioned that I can't do the job myself. There will be labor fees.

Slave cylinders are normally very easy to repair. The longest part of the job is bleeding air out of the system.

Easy only if you have a lift. In the driveway with the car only a foot off the ground and you have to use a few feet of extensions and a swivel to get to the bolts, it is a royal pain in the ass.

Fair enough, the last 2 slave cylinders I repaired were on my Trooper, so I just popped the wheel off and sat in there while repairing it.

they're not hard to replace. It's external, right?

~$300. I had mine go out almost a year ago.

Not hard, unless you have to do it in your driveway.
