It is a nightmare to remove a slave.
One bolt from the bottom of the car, one from inside the passenger side 
footwell and THAT ONE needs the wrench to be flipped each 1/6th of a 
turn. So when it does come out and you see how long it is, find a 
shorter 3/8 x 16 bolt so it's easier the next time.
but...You can do a quicky slave rebuild without removing the slave.
Do it from under the car with a new seal and a squirt can of brake clean.
You might even be able to hone it too.
Remove the slave rod cotter pin, remove the rod, and the slave guts are 
now accessable. Not a lot of fun but a whole lot faster than removing 
the slave from the car.
