Searching for Slave Cylinders by Specs, not application

I’ve always had good luck at Napa with old industrial parts back in CT, mainly because they pull out a cross reference book and put in the time. My local Napa here in CA punched the obsolete part number into his computer, looked at me and said “can’t help you without year, make, model”. Then I ask if we can search by bore size/stroke and get the same answer. Frustrating this throw-away culture we’re in. Hopefully someone here can help

‘77 C30 with Detroit diesel and spicer CM50 series transmission, which is why application is irreverent. Trying to replace or Rebuild the Clutch slave cylinder.

It’s a Wagner-Lockheed FD-32637

Being it’s fairly obsolete, I would rather replace it with something that is easier to locate. Bore is 1.125” and for some reason, the largest I can find available is 1.0“

I’m assuming Dorman will be the ones to make it, but no way to search by specs on their site. The closest one I found is this one with a 1” bore https://www.dormanproducts.com/p-19029-cs36170.aspx

hould the .125 difference be a big deal? I understand I’m reducing the mechanical advantage at the pedal. I have no way of knowing what the master cylinder specs are as the part number is worn off.

Appreciate the input. I know it looks small, but it’s still 1 1/8” bore. According the Dorman the one you have is 3/4” bore. I’m hesitant to drop 3/8th inch on that...

i know weird stuff like this is all over the industrial side like fork lifts and such . go find your local dealer or service shop for bobcats / yale fork lifts / all these brands and see if you can find a good parts guy there .
