Slave cylinder leaking again.

Got the truck and it need a hydraulic slave cylinder in the 5 speed (Internal). Its a 89 F150 302 4x4. Got a slave from bumper to bumper and now its leaking again not even a year. Looking in to swapping a c6 or something.

I've heard of much better results when using a Motorcraft (OEM Ford) slave cylinder. I'd suggest give one a try because it will be cheaper than swapping to an automatic.
