Default Quick Question

I read somewhere that the older style slave cylinder (98-00) used an 8mm socket for the bleeder while the newer style (01-02) uses a 7/16 socket. Anyone know if there is any truth to this?

As I recall the same socket fit on both my 98 one and my newer 01-02 hydraulics...

Thanks, guys. That's what I figured. Still having trouble figuring out if this "new" slave I got is an older style or updated one. The color of the fittings are the only difference that I can see, but the fittings are also shaped a little differently.
