I rebuilt a slave cylinder for an MG Midget that had been sitting for 18 years. I saved about $50 by doing the rebuild myself, it took a couple hours (mostly just to get it cleaned out) and I thought that was worth my time.

I definitely wouldn't do a rebuild on a slave cylinder I could buy new for $30. You'd have to spend $5 or $10 for the rebuild kit, then spend a couple hours working on it, and what you get in return is a chance to save $20 or $25 if you do it right, if your old slave isn't too badly pitted or scored to seal up right, and if it doesn't leak when you're done.
