Clutch Slave Cylinder Shield

[Archive]

Yesterday while I was doing an oil change, filter change, lube and rotated the tires I noticed that the shield that protects the clutch slave cylinder was ready to fall off. Upon closer inspection, I found the two upper tabs (one on left and one right) were completly broken off and the lower (one in the middle) was severly cracked and ready to fall off.
Rather than buying new from Dodge I manufactured my own from heavy sheet metal and spray painted it black. Looks like new and will definitely not crack. It is amazing the problems one can avoid by regular maintenace and critically looking around the vehicle.

Hi Al,

I had the same problem and I went to the dealer and bought a new one. Right now can't remember how much, but it was more than $10. Now I noticed it's broken again. I guess I will do the same as you did and fabricate my own or weld the old one with reinforcment on the bends.

The '92 hers at work one day while leaving the parking lot and it got squished by the next passing car. It was replaced by a homemade cover with heavier guage metal.
