Product Description
POWERslave Clutch Slave Cylinder - FTC5202PLOF - LOF
Heavy Td5 clutch pedal?
THE REVOLUTIONARY POWERslave has been designed as an affordable, cost effective Slave cylinder that reduces the weight of the pedal significantly.
This slave can be fitted to both the Td5 Discovery and also the Td5 Defender.
**POWERslave lowers the biting point of the clutch, on Defender models this can be adjusted in the pedal box, For Discovery 2 TD5 we suggest installing once a clutch is bedded in (Biting point higher, as the pedal box is not adjustable and may not clear with a brand new clutch )**
- 30% lighter than OEM set up
*Cannot be fitted in conjunction with the LOF POWER Master cylinder*

Tips for installing & Bleeding:
Use a pipe clamp / soft jaw grips on the flexi hose hose to retain the majority of Brake fluid.
Bleeding the Td5 can be a little awkward, if you think there is air in the system, you can wedge the clutch pedal down over night to allow the air to rise to the top of the system.
On the Defender if you need to increase clearance; this can be done by adjusting the master cylinder pushrod to move the pedal assembly further away from the bulkhead increasing the stroke.
