Brake Booster R&R - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Replacing the power brake booster on my '76. After working diligently to get the six nuts off of the brake booster bracket (not an easy task!) I thought it would just pull away from the firewall, but the rod seems to be stuck. Do I need to release the rod from the brake pedal or just pull a little harder on it? Thanks for any advice - Rob
