Does anyone know what works for the Clutch Slave hose? I understand Toyota discontinued the slave hose.
I wanted to use a Stainless Steel hose, and I actually bought one from SOR but I ended up using it on my rear brake lane instead of the hose I got from MAF because it was a little longer (and it was marked as a brake hose).
I had planned to use the MAF SS hose for the Clutch, but when I was looking at the connections and both on the Slave cylinder and the connector end of the SS hose, I noted that they both have a flat round outer mating surface and concave interior profiles (like they are both female), like the photo below. It seems like the hose should have a flared end to make a tight connection. Will it make a tight connection with both ends have the same profile? The Hose connector is slightly longer than the slave threads too, so it not possible to get a tight seal using the supplied copper gasket.
I believe I would have the exact same situation even if I used the SOR hose, so I assume SOR must feel taht this is an acceptable connection. Any thoughts about this out there ?
