Product Details

Centric Premium Clutch Slave Cylinders are part of a broad clutch hydraulic program covering master and slave cylinder service needs. This unit is engineered to match original equipment specifications for fit, function, and hydraulic response. It is a practical replacement choice for vehicles such as the 1985-1989 Chevrolet Cavalier, 1985-1991 Pontiac Grand Am, and 1986-1990 Pontiac Sunbird, along with additional listed GM applications. The 138.62012 clutch slave cylinder supports proper clutch disengagement in manual transmission systems when the original hydraulic component is worn or leaking.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Soft or inconsistent clutch pedal feel
• Difficulty disengaging the clutch during shifting
• Hydraulic fluid leakage at the slave cylinder
• Delayed or incomplete clutch release
• Wear-related loss of hydraulic pressure in the clutch system

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bore diameter, 2-hole mounting, and O-ring port style before installation. Confirm vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and any listed notes, especially on applications such as the 1988 Chevrolet Corsica Type 1 VIN 200001-500000 and 1988-1991 Pontiac Grand Am Quad 4. Inspect the clutch hydraulic system for contamination or air in the lines before bleeding the system after replacement. Use the part number 138.62012 to confirm the correct application during ordering and service.
