I found new clutch slaves at NAPA, at a fair price. 9 times out of 10 on a Dodge hydro clutch the problem is in the slave. Usually bleeding it will get you by for a while. 1-man gravity bleeder makes it a cinch.

They'll actually work fine without a return spring, but that's a problem, because they work fine until suddenly they don't! Never figured that one out, but my TW was that way. Worked for years without, then wouldn't work without a spring in place.

I agree on stainless sleeved, I have a friend who re-sleeves Mopar masters & slaves, does excellent work:
