Hopefully quick (and painless) question before I order parts...
I'm picking up a new-to-me AX-15 from a '99 XJ to swap into my '93 this weekend. I thought I was good to go and had everything ready to order but now I'm 2nd guessing myself. I should be set on everything except, possibly, hydraulics. I originally planned to get a pre-bled master/slave/hose assembly for a '99 XJ and use use this for the install but now I'm unsure if everything will work...
I believe I read that the bolt pattern for the later model master cylinder is different from the older master cylinder. Is the bolt pattern the only difference between older and newer master cylinders?
E.g. Will I just have to redrill the holes for the new master cylinder? Or are other modifications necessary (to the clutch pedal, etc) to get the pedal travel right? Or do both master cylinders have the same throw so it would just bolt right up to my clutch pedal and be good to go?
