Ok title has my truck make have the 318 5.2 liter engine. Well the roll pin on my slave pop out releasing my hydraulic line whilst driving. I replaced the slave cylinder bleed system via slave bleed off port but still have no clutch and it is very soft bleeding multiple times to ensure no air in system had no affecton clutch tension or if it would engage clutch. Could I have blown the master when this happened? Or could I be looking at a more serious issue? Truck shifted easy before this happened with good clutch tension and little play.

Dodge sells a complete master cylinder with reservoir and slave all together. All you have to do is install it. Bleeding these can be a real pain, you need 2 people and lots of patience. Open the bleeder, press the clutch down, close the bleeder pull the clutch pedal up if it does not return itself, wait 10 seconds repeat until pedal feels good and keep an eye on the fluid level. Hope this information helps
