Clutch master and slave cylinder

So My clutch master cylinder is shot (leaks at the clutch pedal by the fire wall) and on a 2.5l 1995 jy the Slave is external, and you can buy the complete kit for around $160.00 (slave and master with tube) or i can buy just a MC (only $66) and skip the slave since the slave is fine. if i buy the whole kit it is pre bleed so i wont even have to bleed it, if I buy just the master I will have to bleed it and risk the o ring on the slave not holding and could eventually having a leak in the slave 6-9 month down the road, but I will save the money now?/ what should i do??

if money isnt a problem then buy the kit and save you the time with bleeding. I havent had this problem but i am swaping out the tranny in a 90 4.2 and i changer it to the external slave and saved myself a lot of time.

Money not that big of a problem but I also can spend that extra 100$ elsewhere.. I am leaning towards just doing the whole assembly..

I have heard if you do one do the other one too while you are at it. People say if you do just the master then the slave will likely go out soon. Also everyone says to buy the pre-bled kit.

I just got the part today, any suggestion on the install procedure?
I read this clutch master cylinder assembly insta... JeepForum.com
and it states
1. remove the slave, and then the master.
2. install the slave then the master
3. leave the plastic part on the slave
4. pump clutch 1 time and done??

sound right?
does anyone have a link on a write up for this or a PDF on a manual?
I found several write ups on just the master or just the slave but none on the whole assembly install? thanks..
