Default '95 968 Vacuum Booster removal

Please do not tell me you have to remove the intake manifold to get this thing out.

Is it possible to disconnect the rod and clevis on the booster end from the inside and sneak this booster out of the vehicle? I already removed the clip and pivot bolt thing at the pedal end.

I sure hope there is a way to remove this thing without taling all kinds of crap apart. Right now it is unbolted with the vacuum lines and master cylinder off of it.

I moved all hoses and wiring out of the way the best I could. I can roll it around a bit, but I suspect the rod is limiting its removal.

Thanks,

Mike

I don't know if it's possible, but i sure hope it is since I have the same firewall crack in my 968.

Default 968 Brake booster removal

It sounds like this failure ight be a common occurance as these cars age,,,bummer.

By the way, I am still clueless if I can get the booster out of the way without removing the intake manifold. If you catch wind of any info one way or the other, please let me know.

Thanks

Default Brake Booster 968...Repair manual 968

Still no answers out there. Went to local auto parts stores looking for Haynes manual, no luck.

Does anyone have a 968 manual to sell?

Thanks,

Mike
