Has anybody run a direct flexible line from the master cylinder to the slave instead of the 2 piece system that is standard .

You should put your heart & soul into everything you do.

yes mine has a flexible line direct from the master to slave cylinder.. works fine...

Any disadvantages? I am using a falcon slave cylinder.

not that i am aware off, works well for me, any reason your using a ford slave cylinder???

Well I was at a mates place to change the clutch arm etc as I thought that was the problem but it turned out to be the slave cylinder , I had taken a spare everything with me but the slave cylinder was new about 20 yrs ago and so was it was stuck , my mate had a falcon one there as a spare so we fitted that and all was well with the world. Is the flexible hose off something in particular or did you have it made ?
