I went and checked mine just for you - I used a wilwood clutch master. Keep in mind the clutch reservoir they provide is _SHIT_. It leaked many times and in the end I used a commodore clutch reservoir for the fluid.

Thank you mate, do you have any pics of how close it is? Or a part number? No rush mate

Sorry, I did check but it's so damn close down there that I honestly can't get close enough to find a part number or anything like that. I'm trying to remember where I sourced it from or how, but it could be that it either was provided when I bought the gearbox or something along those lines. I know you definitely need one because the clutch doesn't disengage properly without one, and you definitely want to be checking that a million times and measuring when you use a starter motor relocation kit.

We assumed we wouldn't need 2 spacers (there was one with the starter relocaiton kit) and found out my clutch was not disengaging... ever. Which lead to a clutch failure at the track down the line.

I just checked my messages and I believe the guys that helped with the fab sourced the Wilwood item (they do many T56/LS swaps into things) and used this master because they pretty much always use that master because they know it works and don't have to rely on converting OEM things.

So my answer is "Something Wilwood that is suitable for a T56"

Mal Wood, most of the details are in the build thread (which really kicks off mostly with the LS Conversion).

If it was a track only car, and you can delete aircon, PS, don't care about other things etc you MAY MAY not need to. I needed to. 😛

    • There's actually quite a bit of aftermarket for automatic/manual tyre deflater/inflater systems ... many will have seen YT vids of trucks on tropical forest roads (read: mud), with air lines leading from the chassis/bed down to a hub piece, which in turn connects to the tyre valves ...most of the time only used on the drive axles, to adjust tyre pressures and get some grip....(bit like letting air out of a 4WD to get traction on loose dirt/sand)...
    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
