2nd gen clutch hydraulic line photos
Howdy howdy.
About 5 yrs ago I started a rebuild project of a 95 4runner. Bought a donor with a (turned out to be bad engine), but decided to put its 5 spd into mine.
Then life happened.
So here I am now, and I have what I was pretty dang sure was the clutch line, but it has an open end hose on one end. wth?? I don't recall that. So, I was sure I took pics (because we did have cameras in those days), but can not find them.
And have now spent a few days trying to find images of where and how the clutch line runs. Bad part is I keep chasing rabbits ("oooo. Never read this build thread!") And I can't find jack with search anyway. My ex would say I couldn't find my butt with both hands, a map, and a flashlight!
So my plea: If any one has any pics (with engine (mine is a 3.0) or without) of clutch tube, can you post them, or pm me? I can get email of them too. Intentional, or accidental if they show the line, hose, flex connector, etc., that'd be awesome. Have a printed FSM, but it doesn't show it, even with a generic shape.
Thanks in advance. Have a great weekend.

Make a new one and be done.
Trying to get a old one in without having the engine out and most of the stuff bolted to the firewall removed is real frustrating I learned this the hard way .
steel line to the bracket flex line to another bracket steel line to the clutch slave cylinder is the stock setup
make your own custom set up that works for you

Yeah, that sounds best. I can't find the original tube that actually ran down to the slave. Guess that'll have to wait till I'm further along. Thanks for the help!

I just did an auto to manual swap on an 87 4Runner. I bought an aftermarket stainless braided line.
The original line is more complicated and has more connections (points to fail).
I just ran it up over the clutch master cylinder across the top of the firewall and used some hardware store hose clamps on existing bolts to keep it in place. The. I just dropped it down the side to the slave cylinder.
I think I only used 2 clamps and a couple of cable ties.
