    Default Master And Slave assembly Removal.... HELP PLEASE

    Trying to remove the Master and slave assembly. I took the 2 nuts loose from under the dash and pushed the assembly through the firewall as far as I could, but it bottoms out against the wheel well and power brake booster.

    Can someone chime in and give me some direction on how this assembly comes out through the firewall??

    Does the brake booster have to come off..... I hope not!!

    Also, trying to remove the clutch pedal..... I crawled up there as far as I could to look at what needs to come loose, but it's pretty tough for a big guy.... lol Is the clutch pedal separate from the brake , or is it an assembly in these cars??

    Thanks for your help!!

    Pull the brake booster. It's literally two nuts holding on the master cylinder which you can just move out of the way, then four bolts on the inside under the dash holding it on. Takes like 15 minutes to get out.......though IIRC you need to remove the drivers side half of the cowl too. Once the booster is out of the way you should easily be able to remove the clutch master cylinder.

    What I find easier when working under the dash it just to remove the drivers seat, its only 4 bolts and it makes all the difference, believe me, its worth the extra 15 minutes to remove the seat then you can just lay on the floorboard and work a lot easier..

    Yep.... got it. I have a cage so removing the seat was a must do. Had to remove the drivers side cowl and booster and wahla.... the master/slave are out.... good riddance!! I'm converting to T400.

    Any advice on removing the clutch pedal??

    Thanks!!
