Brake failure- how hard is replacing the master cylinder/ booster

[James Cody]

I had the dreaded brake failure. I want to buy the part and replace it myself. I'm wondering how difficult the actual replacement is? TIA

First and foremost: Brakes should only be worked by those, with high level of mechanical abilities and experienced with brake systems.

With the age of all 100 series today, in our aging fleet. Any issue, with brake master assembly. IMHO, best and safest course of action. Have the whole brake master assembly, replaced with new. If you have to ask question, on "how to", your not qualified to work on the master.

My hope is below link will give better understanding as to what we can do to reduce brake failure and what to watch for. The info is from my experiences and my thinking, as to what...
