    11mm Flare for brake lines
    10mm box wrench for MC to Booster nuts (ratcheting wrench will work great)
    10 or 13mm socket for Booster to Firewall nuts (can't remember which size)
    12" extension to reach booster/firewall nuts
    3/8" ratchet

    Disconnect booster shaft from brake pedal, remove brake lines from M/C, remove M/C from booster, remove booster/firewall nuts, take out booster.

      They're 13mm.

      Also pick up a gasket for the brake booster, or make your own gasket.

        Bringing this back up. I am removing my booster right now and I am at the step where the booster is out, but is getting caught on the intake and strut tower. How the hell do you get this thing out with it being sandwiched in there?

            I got it out. I forgot that my trans was tilted a bit lower because I don't have the cross member in.

            Thanks.
