So if you've been into Anything Goes you'll have read i was almost stranded at B&Q when my slave bracket broke and caused my slave cylinder to go haywire and if it wasn't for Joe (OldIrishWolf) i'd have still been there.
I was wondering how much pressure is actually put on the cylinder from the clutch as the cylinder out of its place operates quite easily, but in its place there's some huge forces involved. Would there be something wrong with the clutch itself if it was putting that much pressure on the slave cylinder and bracket?
When i try to move the small 'arm' by hand that the slave operates, it's impossible to get it move, bar the few centimeters of free play it has.
When the slave was bodged in place, the clutch was working fine bar from it being hard to get into gear due to a loss of fluid from the slave after the piston had been pushed out.
Also, are there uprated brackets you can get or would it be worth getting someone to weld some reinforcements onto a new bracket for me?
