Marlin Crawler Steel Braid Clutch line on 91 3vze pickup: Will it fit?

Anyone have the Marlin Crawler Steel Braided Clutch Line installed on their rigs? My Clutch hose is leaking and I want to upgrade to a Steel Braided line. I got this one from Marlin Crawler for my truck, but when I looked at the stock fittings, their a tad bit longer compared to the MC hose fittings .

Website says its compatible: Applications include all 1979-1995 Toyota Hilux trucks and 4Runners, 1995-2004 Tacomas, and 1996-2002 4Runners. Compatible with 2WD or 4WD. Depending on application, some frame brackets have a larger opening and will require both clip shims to compensate for this extra gap. The installed photos at left are from a 1982 4WD Pickup and only require 1 clip shim as shown at the lower side of the upper frame bracket.

I don't think It'll fit unless I modify the hardlines. Anyone have this clutch line installed on their 89-95 3VZE pickups?

Awesome, thanks!

I went ahead and installed it. Taking out the original hose was a PITA but MC unit looks and works way better.


As you can see, the upper fitting on the MC unit is shorter...But it will still hook up without too much hassle.


This thing looks awesome


I'll do a write up of the install since I cant find one on the forum.
