Hydraulic Clutch Conversion.(Ranger)

I'm wondering if anyone has ever converted the hydraulic clutch on the ranger over to a mechanical "steel rod" or cable type actuator ? the reason I ask is cause I'm pissed at having to pay fairly high prices for parts that in the past were not necessary "steel rod type actuator" or reasonably priced parts such as the cable type actuator. here's a brief example of costs.

76 F-250 4x4 steel rod clutch actuator, cost $ 0 they don't break.

76 Ford Capri Clutch Cable, cost $ 12.46 U.S.

86 Ranger Clutch Master Cylinder, cost $ 70 U.S $ 109 Cdn.

86 Ranger Clutch Slave Clylinder, cost $ 116 U.S $ 271 Cdn.

Personally I'm not seeing the advantage of hydraulic over old school except it's making someone lots of money !
