cool, I'll offer him no more than $50 for both parts (used)



I looked over the removal of both items during breakfast this morning (in Haynes manual). The seem pretty simple, like remove brake lines from MC, remove 2 bolts, it comes off. Booster is like a tube, and 4 bolts under dash. I may be off a tad, but it doesn't seem difficult at all.
I'm sure you know this already, but be careful with the brake fluid. it's evil.



especially in that area, the F harness goes right under there, my MC leaked over winter while my car sat waiting for the new engine... when I discovered it the paint had already been all messed. To make things worse, when I pulled apart the F harness to strip out the unused wires, I found *alot* more brake fluid that had been accumulating in the harness loom all winter from the leak, what a mess.



I hate glycol based brake fluid.

Thanks for the tip, I'll see if I can get a turkey baster or something to suck as much fluid out as possible before I try to remove it.

You'll need to bench bleed the master cylinder too.
