{"product_id":"slave-cylinder-clutch-186838","title":"Slave Cylinder - Clutch for Defender (1986 – 2006) R380 - Tdi - Gearbox - Suffix J and K – FTC5072","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe slave cylinder is the hydraulic actuating component in the clutch release system, receiving fluid pressure from the master cylinder and physically disengaging the clutch plate via the release fork. On R380 gearbox applications, a failing slave cylinder typically presents as a spongy or sinking clutch pedal, incomplete clutch disengagement, or visible fluid leakage at the bellhousing. Replacing a worn slave cylinder restores correct hydraulic travel and prevents clutch drag, which can accelerate wear on the release bearing and pressure plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned specifically for R380 manual gearboxes in Suffix J and K configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement requiring no modification to existing hydraulic lines or mounting points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets OEM specification for bore diameter and fluid compatibility - part number FTC5072\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen replacing, inspect the clutch master cylinder and hydraulic line for leaks, and bleed the system thoroughly after fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits Defender (1986–2006) with R380 Tdi gearbox (Suffix J and K), Discovery 1 (1989–1998) with R380 Tdi, MPI, and V8 EFI manual transmissions to (G)437140J, and Range Rover Classic with R380 V8 petrol and diesel 5-speed manual gearboxes to JA610294.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot sure about fitment?
