Re: [Amc-list] Jeep Clutch Hydraulics

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I'd like to know what is up with the different years.
Rock auto lists seperate parts, but I did not see any sign of the system being friendly to taking it apart.
Ebay sellers list a 94-96 setup for $90. 1997 at $190 and 98-01 at $170! I know the 99- 01 went to a different trans.
It would be nice if the 94-96 would work. I'm figuring they changed things in the pedal ration/dash or firewal on the 97 then changed again for the new trans. 

Just my luck!
