Removal and Installation

All vehicles 

NOTE: Do not service the brake pedal or brake booster without first removing the stoplamp switch. This switch must be removed with the brake pedal in the at-rest position. The switch plunger must be compressed for the switch to rotate in the bracket. Attempting to remove the switch when the plunger is extended (during pedal apply) will result in damage to the switch.
1. Remove the stoplamp switch. For additional information, refer to STOPLAMP SWITCH .
NOTE: The booster push rod clevis-locking pin is a one-time use only part. Any time the booster push rod clevis-locking pin is removed, a new booster push rod clevis-locking pin should be used.
NOTE: Remove the clevis-locking pin by squeezing the locking tabs and pulling outward on the opposite end.
2. Remove and discard the booster push rod clevis-locking pin.
3. Remove and discard the 4 brake booster nuts.
