I need to rebuild my booster and master cylinder. Questions: 1.) What is the correct method of removal? It does not appear that a normal human can access all of the nuts/bolts to release the booster or master insitu. Is the correct method to remove the bracket along with the pedal assembly after removing the clutch master? 2.) Recommended shop for rebuild? Karps? Motion Products? Thanks much gents
You unscrew the four nuts holding the booster to the mounting bracket remove the cotter pin from the pin on the actuating rod. It's not easy to do. I work from the engine compartment and through the access opening at the rear of the left inner fender panel. You will need some special shaped wrenches ( S-shaped, C-shaped, Self-racheting) in order to remove the nuts. The master cylinder and booster come out as a unit.
I did the power brake booster on my 330 GTC and it too, like Brian said, was tough. I also approached that 4th nut from inside the left front fender well. Notta job I want do to again. I think that Karp sold to someone else, but can't be sure. Might check Tom Yang's site for more specifics. I used Power Brake Exchange and was very, very happy with them. Fast turnover, excellent work, looked great and more than fairly price. (and they give me $2.18 for every referral!)
