I've hear it's pretty common for the slave to go out after a new master. I'm not sure what the theory is on that, whether a new master might put out more pressure or gunk from the blown master seals gets into the slave. Either way, 140k from a slave probably isn't unheard of bad but is definitely a bummer. Did you use an OEM slave when you did the job 140k ago? It's not a job I would want to tackle in the winter, but it will feel good to be back on the road. If most of those miles are highway and you need to save a few bucks, your clutch might have a lot of life left. May as well do the TO and rear main seal though.
Good luck! It's nice to hear about another early 9k on the road.
