    Dick Fritz told me once it is the same as the Renault Le Car and costs $5. Never had mine go out so can't confirm. But the source knows his Boxers.

    Ferrari Dallas quoted me $550 for an aftermarket slave cylinder...GT car parts had the new rubber seal for $30...no brainer!

    Agter removal and inspection the piston inside the slave was not traveling full length, but now it's all cleaned up and working fine...there is very slight pitting, but nothing too severe to use, or warent spending $550 on!

    Thanks for your help guys.

    Hi Guys,

    Sorry to resurrect this oldie, but I ended up installing a complete new clutch slave cylinder, which today let me down again...exactly the same as before. With minimal mileage on it and with the extortionate cost this is ridiculous.
    Does anyone now have a number for the seal...its clearly deformed?
    Thanks.

    The Ferrari p/n was 111275 which it appears to be NLA. Don't know if Lambo offers the seal separately. Benditalia was the OEM for the cylinder and their part number for the seal was 14-20048.

    White Post restorations. sleeves brake and master cylinders. you might try contacting them. They rebuild many brake cylinders for antique vehicles. I had a discussion with them once about using brass over stainless steel for sleeves. They told me they have used SS, but the press fit had to be tighter, and on thin wall cylinders it would crack the cast iron. If the press fit was looser with SS, It would work its way out. Brass doesn't require as tight shrink fit, and works very well. The company has been doing this for years thru a few generations of family owners.
