I've decided to replace the clutch master cyl on my 95 Sport. Options are Duralast ($46), Brakeware ($46), Sachs ($66) or Luk ($88). Are any of these any good? Any recommendations? Many thanks at all!

My accumulated knowledge from reading all the clutch and slave threads says to get one from a Ford dealer.
When I did mine, I bought the whole LUK package (clutch and slave).
 






Well I got the Duralast one and it works just fine. After bench bleeding, installed OK. Bled the clutch slave (what a pain) and now the 5 spd is transformed and fully operational again.
 






Glad it's running again. The issue between brands is not whether they work, but how long they work.
 






What about the prefilled master/slave cyl kits? Shouldn't need to bleed-right or wrong?
 












Still need to bleed. It's almost impossible to remove the lines from old cyl and install on new cyl w/o introducing air into system.
