Worn clutch - got the pedals - whats best Master/Slave?

I've endured a partial clutch engagement the pedals and rod is fubar. - ordered a Canadian made pedal assembly and ready to swap that in.

My clutch master rod has been hacked with a ball Heim joint so might as well fix that too.

Is there a better/best choice for a master slave kit? I avoid Chinese replacement parts whenever possible.- is there another choice?

I've found LUK kit - it's about $50-$75 more than the standard kits - is it better? is there a better choice?

Thanks guys!
Heading out to swap pedals, the girl on you-tube did it in about 20 minutes. I'll schedule a little longer.

I like the Perfection Clutch master/slave, cast alum instead of plastic.

Hi Brian.\
That kit doesn't show in any search, but I did find Perfection Hydraulics, I have a request in to customer service. Thanks for the tip!

It looks like you run a repair shop, Perfection has not responded to my inquiry. disappointing indeed.

My install is diesel with the external slave, the one fact working in my favor on this job. I need to check Rock Auto more often, NAPA isn't what it used to be. Rocks prices are better than some charge for China crap. Live and learn.

After no contact from Precision, I ordered the LUK - whicjh is what I put in about 8-10 years ago. - all working fine - the pedal hardware was worn, beyond limits.

I got the pedals swapped out, probably 4 plus hours, it would have taken far longer without the YouTube video. (ya know the one where the girl did it in 25 minutes) The hydraulics arrived this evening, and I'll finish up in the morning.

Thanks for the pointers Brian, I know what I'll do next time.
