Which adjustable master to go with?
I'm having some problems with my clutch not fully disengaging and I think an adjustable master might take care of the problem. Is there any one in particular you guys might recommend?

Also for adjustable ones.... Cartek and RAM both sell versions of modified stockers to make them adjustable. RAM charges $169 for theirs, and Cartek charges $330 something. What on earth does Cartek do to make theirs $170 more than the RAM?

Do you think I should just replace mine with a new one? I have a 99... From what I understand it was updated in 01 or 02?

So I dunno, but Cartek is definitely out. It's not the $339 because if someone said get the McLeod I would have ordered it already, but I'm not paying $170 more for something that isn't worth it.
Summit has the RAM for $175, right here....

So I dunno, but I need to figure out what to do. My car is parked until this issue is resolved.

I have a MCLeod and would not recomment them. They have had some problems where the line fitting is welded to the cylinder. It creates a bump on the inside of the cylinder that wears away the piston "cup". I had to remove mine and use a brake cylinder hone to remove the bump and replace the piston cup.

I think I'm gonna go with the Ram, I'm going to call them in the morning and make sure that the modified ones are made from the newer 01-02+ design and not an old one like what I have.
