Removal Procedure
- Remove the booster vacuum hose from the vacuum check valve.
- Remove the master cylinder attaching nuts.
- Remove the master cylinder from the booster. Move the master cylinder forward just enough to clear the studs on the booster. This will flex the brake pipes slightly. It's important to be careful not to bend or distort the pipes.
- Remove the booster attaching nuts from the brake pedal assembly.
- Remove the booster pushrod from the brake pedal. Tilt the entire booster slightly to work pushrod off the pedal clevis pin without putting undue side pressure on the pushrod.
- Remove the booster from the vehicle.
- Remove the gasket.
Important: The booster can be removed from the vehicle without removing or disconnecting the master cylinder. However, if both the booster and the master cylinder are to be removed, remove the master cylinder first; refer to Master Cylinder.
Installation Procedure
- Install the gasket to booster.
- Install the booster to the vehicle.
- Install the booster pushrod to the brake pedal. Tilt the entire booster slightly to work pushrod on the pedal clevis pin without putting undue side pressure on the pushrod.
- Install the booster attaching nuts onto the booster studs.
- Install the master cylinder onto the booster
- Install the master cylinder attaching nuts.
- Install the booster vacuum hose from the vacuum check valve.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Tighten
Tighten the nuts to 27 N·m (20 lb ft).
