Those fittings are great! Knock out the roll pins at master and slave, remove line, add these, then use braided steel AN hose.
That's how I adapted the ram SRT-10 Hyd to bearing to my factory master to install the T56 in my Dakota.
Fits together like the factory designed it that way!

Not sure if I am understanding things right here, but if you are saying the slave isn't stroking, maybe the master is bypassing, internal leak?
What does the inside of the firewall look like?
I had a '93 Jeep Wrangler, same symptoms (I think) clutch master was leaking at the firewall, and not releasing the clutch.
there was no evidence of leakage, pulled the slave and yes it stroked, once. Lost pedal, then I messed the hose up while shoving the rod back into the slave cyl causing it to leak at the angled fitting on the hose end of the slave.
Hi RedRam! Long time no yadda yadda. What was the temperature when all this began?

Hey Red, Congrats on the sale.
Been a while since it was above freezing, I'd say from the teens to low 30s.
Thanks! Just wondering since the extreme cold seemed to play havoc with everything at work including hydraulics that may have moisture trapped in the lines.

Finally back on the road. Pressure plate died. Throwout brg was ok, clutch plate and flywheel looked great. Bought a heavy duty single disc Southbend setup that has a lot more clamp than the stock setup did. Engagement is smooth, pedal effort is definitely higher than stock, but I will get used to it. Entire clutch kit was little over $1200 and install was $457 at my local dealer.  Getting away from the stock dual mass setup, I was concerned about trans/gear noise that some after market clutch users report. Only thing I noticed during my 25 mile ride home was when/if you lugged the motor below 1000rpm, you can definitely hear the gear rattle in the trans. Hope to get more than 69k miles out of this one. No complaints with my dealer's service dept, was expecting more than a $457 bill, and they seemed to have no problem installing non-chrysler parts that I brought to them.

Good luck, let us know when the gear rattle goes away and it is time for a new trans... 
Will do 
BTW, exactly which Southbend model did you have so much trouble with? And, who's clutch disc solved all of your trans problems?
