If you're getting the cheapest one you can find then yeah, you get what you pay for.

faulty mc

took a look at it today.the pushrod in the back of the mc was pushing in at an angle,causing it to leak.probably what happened to the other two.so i took the linkage off my old aisin(made of solid metal)and replaced the one on the cheap mc(made of metal and rubber)its pushing in straight now but i will know in a few days if it will work.guess you do get what you pay for.by the way i did replace the slave an d the clutch hose.
