Saturn LS1 Clutch Slave Cylinder

In Saturn LS1 automobiles, Clutch Slave Cylinder is complemented with Clutch Master Cylinder to assist on disengaging the clutch during operation of the pedestal in order to improve on shifting of gears. The hydraulic pressure from master cylinder acts upon the clutch slave cylinder which pushes a rod to act against a lever or fork to unlock the clutch and allow smooth shifting of gear. Clutch slave cylinder problems pose gear shift risks and threaten the transmission, highlighting why replacement is needed when signs occur. In LS1 vehicles, the master cylinder expounds the force exerted by the driver into hydraulic pressure to work on the slave cylinder to allow safe shifting of gears.

Each OEM Saturn LS1 Clutch Slave Cylinder we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part.
