1988 JEEP CHEROKEE drain bolt

MASTER CYLINDER - GRAND WAGONEER
NOTE: Do not hone master cylinder bore. Bore has a highly polished
"bearingized" surface. Honing will cause premature failure
of rubber parts.
Disassembly
1) Clean outside of cylinder thoroughly and remove cover.
Drain fluid. Pump piston to remove any remaining fluid. On
Delco/Moraine models with composite fluid reservoir, install metal
flange in vise and pry reservoir off with a pry bar. Bendix composite
reservoir is held on by 4 bolts on bottom of reservoir. On manual
brake models, remove boot from cylinder to uncover push rod retainer.
2) Pry up retainer tab to release retainer. Remove snap ring
from groove in cylinder bore. Remove both piston assemblies. Remove
remaining internal parts from bore. Note direction of piston seals.
Remove and discard all rubber parts from piston assemblies.
3) Tube seats can be removed if damaged. Enlarge holes in
tube seats using a 13/64" drill. Place a large flat washer over outlet
and thread a 1/4" x 20 x 3/4" screw into seat. Tighten screw until
seat is loose. See Fig. 14. Remove seat, screw and washer.

1988 Clutch
Hydraulic
Cherokee, Comanche, Wagoneer, Wrangler
DESCRIPTION
The clutch assembly consists of a single dry-disc driven
plate and a one-piece diaphragm spring-type clutch cover. On Wrangler
4-cylinder models, the clutch cover and driven plate diameter is 9.28"
(232 mm). On Wrangler 6-cylinder models, the clutch cover and driven
plate diameter is 10.5" (266 mm). On all other 4 and 6-cylinder
models, the clutch cover and driven plate diameter is 9.7"
(246 mm). The clutch is actuated through a hydraulic master cylinder
and slave cylinder.
On Wrangler models, the slave cylinder is mounted inside the
clutch housing. The bearing is permanently attached to the cylinder
piston.
