Default Clutch issues

So my car has developed the clutch pedal to the floor syndrome.. check the clutch fluid and its empty put some in there pump the clutch pedal a few times feels like normal after a few times then goes back to feeling soft and then back to the floor and staying there. Look under the car and its pouring out from underneath guessing the slave took a dump on me i guess. How much of a pain is that to change out?

Changing a slave is a PITA in these cars. You have to drop everything from the front of the torque tube back..Rear cradle, diff, trans, exhaust, etc. It's a ***** to do on jack stands but people do it. If you're going through all that think hard about putting a clutch in there while you're at it.

BTW: Nice looking nose on your car.
