Hi y'all,
I'm a the stage of sorting the clutch on a split window bus and trying to source info on what clutch MC people have used to mate with the SC on the pull type subie boxes?
Thanks,
Mike |

Due to the water blasting to clean the box, as bought fully converted and not as a kit, then it no longer has it's ID sticker on it but it's more than likely a TY754 box as these are easier to convert than the TY752. |

so, you're saying you have a pull style Subaru trans? that's a tough one...probably have to adapt one of the clutch master/slaves for an air cooled trans.
that said, I use a Subaru push style 5 speed for a conversion and used all of the stock Subaru master/slave without issue. _________________

How did you setup the subi master with the VW pedals? |

So a bit more investigating and the box came from a WRX or STi so can just use the Subie SC on the gearbox and then for the MC I've found that the 1998-2005 MC should be best as it has a remote reservoir and this then can be placed under the inspection cover present in Split window bus floors. At least for a RHD model anyway.
As for mounting the MC it's a case of welding a tab to the clutch lever arm and then fabricating a bracket to weld to the underside of the bus. Fortunately for RHD there's a crossmember that can be used but for LHD the clutch pedal exists on the wrong wide of this member so I think would require welding to the chassis rail. |
