    m52 brake booster issue

    I just recently finished a swap in my car, and I moved the stock 91' 318is booster over. When moving it over my buddy unbolted the master cylinder from the booster. Well he bolted it back together and we bolted everything back to the firewall of the car.

    Now my brake pedal won't come back all the way. it's probably about 1-2 inches further down then the clutch pedal. What could be causing this?

      That and your Booster shaft is cockeyed because you moved the booster over.

        ok. I was just wanting to make sure that it isn't jammed of something inside the master cylinder.

          by moving the booster, you essentially lengthened the spacce between the center of the master, and the pedal fork. adjust the fork out and you'll be fine.
