70 Mustang Brake Booster Help
Hi All,
I have a 1970 Mustang Mach 1 (fully optioned dressed original car - 351 C w/ FMX - from disc and rear drum brakes) which I decided to put back on the road after 20 years in the garage and I am trying to replace the brake booster.
I have dropped and disconnected the steering column (bolts, harnesses, rag joint, inside plate) however I cannot figure how to get the column to come out of the hole in the fire wall. The hole seems too small for the lever (to trans) on the engine side to pull through. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Next, I have all of the bolts on the inside of the firewall connected to the brake booster off and I can seem to free it from the fire wall on the inside of the engine compartment. Is the plate that the booster seems to be connected to supposed to come off with the booster on the engine side? (This is the original booster).
Any tricks, tips, wisdom would be appreciated.
Best -
