no necessary to bleed the brakes you can remove the master then shift it forward BEING CAREFUL NOT TO KINK THE BRAKE LINES then reach under the dash to unblot the booster. theres a pin on the linkage and ya pop that of and slide the booster out the firewall

I just did it saturday. Not hard at all. First unbolt the master cylinder, then unbolt the bracket that activates the brake switch. Pull out the pin that hold the rod in place. Then unbolt the booster from the firewall (6 bolts). Reverse to install.
