A clutch alignment tool or you can make your own with a broom handle etc to make sure clutch is aligned with pressure plate, the kit should include the pressure plate, driven plate and the release bearing as well. With the slave cylinder just make sure it's bleed properly after as this also shares the same fluid as brakes.
