not hard, slave is silly easy, master takes some time to undo the hardline under the brake booster but its not hard

only problem ive had (in the midst of replacing my master) is bleeding the damn thing

remove the master cly. and it's attaching hard line as 1 unit.....install as 1 unit aswell. The hardest part of R&Ring the master cyl. is threading those 2 bolts back in....you'll find yourself in some funny positions. As stated above the slave cyl. is stupid easy.

Seriously consider removing your driver seat. Also, it helped to have a shortie open-end wrench when undoing the flare nut on the hard line-engine side, the one connecting to the end of the MC.
Use a flare nut wrench to undo the line, then an open end shortie to unthread and re-thread.

Get a new MC-slave hose, brake fluid reservoir-MC hose and also the 45-degree nipple for the top of the MC.

Doable, but kind of a PITA to undo the master-especially with that drivers seat in. Take it out!
