Hi all, it's been a while. Lost my old account. Anywho, I need some help. I've somehow managed to blow my brake booster resulting in vacuum loss and complete brake failure. I'm ATTEMPTING to replace both the booster and master cylinder, but I'm running into a problem. I can't actually get the brake booster out of the vehicle. Can someone direct me to a write up on how to replace it, or give me suggestions and maybe a picture or two of what might need to be removed to give me just enough space...

With how it looks right now, I think I may have to do a plenum pull just to get this thing out. Someone please tell me that there's an easier way..

BTW I'm working on a non-turbo 2+2 automatic. Don't hate please.

You can't get it out because stuff is in the way or because it won't come out of the firewall?

Here's the fsm page for it, not sure if you checked it yet:

Stuff is in the way, but I can't figure out how to move the stuff without doing a plenum pull.... Which I really want to avoid if possible...
