Hi guys! Please help me out here, I have the T56 installed and now its time to hook up the slave cylinder. The problem is that the bellhousing studs are only threaded on the top half, bottom half (about 2" or so) is smooth. So I Need some sort of spacer to hold the slave on. I did some reading and apparently there is something called a:

"Slave Cylinder Adapter"

Its suppose to slide on top of the slave cylinder and act as a spacer and a splash shield. I called a local dealer this morning to see if i could get one but he had no idea what i was talking about! He said that his diagram just showed the slave cylinder plugging into the bellhousing directly and then is just installed with generic nuts! Ugh...well I really dont think creating a spacer out of nuts is a great idea, I would like to use the correct part.

Can anyone help me out with a part number or atleast let me know the correct name for the part? The thing that slides ontop of the slave and acts as a spacer

Heres a shot of the bellhousing and my studs before i put the tranny in

THANKS A TON!!!

 

Ok I think I have the correct part number now:

12523315

A dealer parts guy was pretty sure thats the correct part, said it looks like a thermostat housing sorta and slides on the bellhousing over or under the slave actuator and is called "BRACKET". LOL...well i hope its what i need... Ofcourse i had to order it sense no one has one in stock

Can anyone confirm that htis is the right part?

 

that's what you need man. i had to order another one for mine, and i found the original after i had the tranny installed...lol
