Description
Converting from cable to hydraulic clutch release on Ford Modular TKO/TKX swaps solves multiple problems at once. The MDL LF Series External Hydraulic Slave Kit eliminates cable clearance headaches around headers while delivering the smooth, consistent pedal feel that hydraulics provide. This is a purpose-built solution for the specific challenges of mating Ford Modular engines to TREMEC five-speeds using the aluminum TCCM1899 bellhousing.
The slave cylinder mounts directly to the bellhousing and pushes from the rear of the clutch fork, keeping the cylinder clear of long tube headers where cable routing becomes a nightmare. The 0.750-inch bore generates 0.619 cubic inches of fluid volume per 1.4-inch stroke, precisely matched to work with MDL's LF Series master cylinders for optimal pedal ratio and effort. No more heavy pedal feel from worn cables that drag. No more clearance issues that force awkward routing compromises.
Application is specific to Ford Modular V8 4.6L/5.0L engines using the TREMEC TCCM1899 aluminum bellhousing with the 7:00 o'clock fork opening position. The engineering accounts for the cable fork geometry, making this a direct-fit solution rather than a compromise adaptation. When paired with MDL LF Series master cylinder kits, you get an engineered system that takes the guesswork out of hydraulic conversion while providing maximum results.
The stainless steel braided line routes cleanly and handles pressure without expansion, giving you the crisp engagement response that cable systems simply cannot match. Installation is straightforward with comprehensive instructions and lifetime technical support from MDL. Made in the USA with the quality that builders expect from Modern Driveline.
