Beware of the almighty slave cylinder!
Driving along today, stopped at an intersection in neutral, went to put it in first and...no clutch! 
Pushed the rig through traffic, and started it in first gear, 
into a parking lot in the worst area of town... Known for gang fights, beatings of random people, good stuff...
So while it was light out, although raining, I went to pull the old one, and the bolts broke. Good ole' steel+aluminum= HEAT REQUIRED. 11:00 at night fixing the slave cylinder to get the rig home. Great way to end a day!

You know you can drive without the clutch, right? Just to get you out of that area...
