Not Ranked
I just came back from visiting a good friend in WA and while there we replaced the THIRD slave in 5000mi on his Backdraft.
The pushrod is perfectly in alignment w/ the cylinder, so it's not asymmetric forces causing the early demise.
O'Reilys had one on the shelf (Mazda pick-up) for under $12. Probably not the best quality, but it got him back on the road FAST.
BTW, this car has had a BIG heat-shield installed under the hydraulic components from day one.
