I bought a new clutch master cylinder from autozone, it's a sachs brand but unlike my old master cylinder, this one dosen't have a rod protection boot, Is this critical? I wouldn't think so since unlike the slave cylinder the master cylinder is in the interior, in an almost completly enclosed place, and I keep my interior fairly clean. I can't get the old one off without destroying it.. and I already had to order the new one from autozone, just wondering what other people's thoughts are.


Thanks.
