Brake booster



As a hammer mechanic, I'd guess it involved a tap hammer and a bloody great BFH. Right? :)

> I recently had a brake booster failure and just happened to have what I thought was a Matching booster.Not! Of course a rebuilt from the local flaps was only $280.00 plus a $45.00 core charge.Well that didn't make me real happy and there aren't any import salvage yards around so it's back to the shop for some ciffering.Someone put them together so I thought I could get them apart.Just take the two boosters and make one good one.That was the begining of my monday adventure.I was able to mix parts and make a good booster.I have assisted brake once more.

> There will be no winter snoozen for Rose.After working on her all summer I'm going to drive her ass off this winter.Yeah, right.
