Victory is mine. I have the new slave cylinder installed and the new hard line. I reused the soft line just because I didnt want to break the line on the firewall or even take the chance. If that line fails later on then Ill find the firewall line. It looks like a lot more has to come out to replace that one too. Possibly the rear turbo...

I picked up a pair if LockTite's. After about three tries the thing finally snapped and I was able to unscrew it with my fingers.

The PITA...

This thing survived the following

10 MM gear wrench

10 MM craftsman flair nut wrench

after it rounded, I used my dremel to flatten two sides.

Then I took a pair of crafts man Vice grips to it..

Then I let it soak in a container of PB blaster

Then I finally went out and got a pair if lock tights. these automaticly tighten and they are the best adjustable wrench I have ever used

It finally gave up....
