I don't claim to be smart, but I've searched with the extent of my vocabulary to no avail. . . Wondering what brand of replacement slave is recomended these days.

Truck is an 87 Ranger 4x4, with a 2.9l and FM145. Clutch on the existing (bad) engine works but was nearly worn out. If my existing slave is not leaking is it worth re-using?

Bearing may need replaced. Truck is ultimately getting a new built 2.9l with a new clutch assembly; going to a junk yard engine in the mean time to get it back on the road.

Worth note, I think that the rear main seal and/or input shaft seal is/are leaking. Don't believe the slave is but the fluid is gad knows how old.
 
I've heard that LUK was the Ford supplier. If true and the original lasted 30 years...
