Clutch Hydraulic Line

I have an 83, 2.3L, 4 speed.
I am trying to find a source for the hydraulic hose that goes from the clutch master cylinder to the slave cylinder. Ford part No is E3TZ7A512B. It is NLA from Ford and I cannot find another source.
TIA,
Jeremy

Centric might make one

It has an external slave and I think the fitting for the hydraulic hose can be unscrewed from the slave.
I think the master fitting unscrewed too, if so then you could use any long enough hydraulic hose and fittings with same threads as slave and master

No, its actually a thick walled plastic tube that has un-threaded nipples on both ends that secure with roll pins. I can't find the tubing or the nipples anywhere.

Yes, I remember now.

Still hydraulic line, plastic(nylon) was just cheaper to use when making thousands of them.

Most car makers use plastic clutch lines

Getting a shop that makes hydraulic lines would be best, they could use or match up your ends.

Google: plastic hydraulic clutch line repair

If yours is broken there are DIY repair options
