I have a '94 Explorer with manual transmission (Mazda). Recently the
transmission is broken and the rebuilt shop sold me one from a '92 Ranger (V6, 4.0L). I was told they are identical.

I installed it together with all new clutch parts. Both the new clutch master and slave cylinders are for '94 Explorer. After that, I found the clutch doesn't work (I don't feel any pressure on the clutch paddle even after completely get rid of the air in the system).

Now I just found that both the clutch master and slave cylinders are different for these two trucks. The slave cylinder for '92 is a little bit longer than '94. So I am wondering if my problem is caused by this.

I also don't know if the replacement of both master/slave cylinders to those of a '92 will solve the problem or they will fit at all?

Could somebody help me?

Thank you very much!

I am not but 85% sure on this. I beleave that if you use a mazda slave cly. this will fix the problem. make sure the line size is the same on both clyenders. Let me know if it works.

 

Thanks but you mean '92 or '94 Mazda slave cylinder?
