If you're removing the transmission for any reason, make sure you replace the slave cylinder while you've got everything apart. The weak link in the factory hydraulic setup is the master cylinder, so there is no need to upgrade your slave - just keep it fresh. Now is a great time to upgrade to our Tick Performance Remote SPEEDbleeder Line, as well!  Former part number is 89059282.

You've got two choices when it comes to replacing the slave cylinder. You can go with the factory GM replacement for C5 (which includes correct fittings) or purchase an 01+ LS1 F-Body style slave cylinder for less money and swap your fittings off of your original slave onto your new one during the install.  The F-Body part number is 24264182.

Both slave cylinders include throwout bearing, choose whichever works with your budget the best. Both are GM quality - don't trust an aftermarket slave cylinder!
