Re: Looking for datsun 521 slave cylinder
Has to be a truck so the fitting and hose clears the torsion bar.
The 521 and the 620/720 are all 3/4" bore inside. All 3 are identical, but the 521 has an eyelet for the clutch arm return spring and the 620 and 720 do not. But if you hang the spring somewhere else they will work on a 521.
Be sure to take the boughten apart and check the bore for metal debris from machining. (they are crap quality) Also wet the inside seal with brake fluid so it doesn't start dry rubbing the bore.

Is that eyelet a small flat steel plate that is held in place loosely by the bleeder? Maybe i'm thinking something British...........?? I haven't even looked at my 521.........!!datzenmike wrote: ↑03 Jul 2021 12:51 Has to be a truck so the fitting and hose clears the torsion bar.

The eyelet is cast into the 510/521 slaves. Anything would do to hold the return spring.
