1979 hydraulic clutch conversion

I'm sing the three speed, bellhousing, and 302 from a 1979 f150 in my project. rest of the truck is a parts truck for my neice, who has a 77.

anyway, due to severe space constraints I need to convert to hydraulic clutch actuation. due to budget constraints, this has to be done as cheaply as possible.

what have you guys done/made to go hydraulic on the slave side?

ive tried searching and google, but apparently my skills are week. cant seem to find much of anything for the ford stuff outside of pre-made kits and t5 swaps.

thanks yall.

just looked through the build. Nice truck.

I saw how you dealt with the master side, but nothing about the slave side. Did i just miss it?

Sorry this is not my thread I just found it whenever I was looking for the same thing you are but the slave cylinder should be the easy part just running the hose to it

Should be. But i am just wanting to make sure that im barking up the right tree with my external slave, stock clutch fork, etc

Id rather stand on the shoulders of giants than build my own ladder here. Everything so far has been done the hardest way possible.
