pedal bracket and guiding the power brake booster
mounting portion up past the booster input rod.
Guide the top of the bracket onto the studs protrud-
ing from the instrument panel support (Fig. 11), then
guide the booster mounting portion onto the power
brake booster mounting studs.
(3) Push the power brake booster back into mount-
ing position from under the hood.
(4) Install the two nuts fastening the brake pedal
bracket to the instrument panel support (Fig. 11).
Install the nuts all the way, but do not tighten them
at this time.
(5) Install the two lower power brake booster
mounting nuts, but do not tighten them at this time.
(6) Place the tie bar running between the two
upper booster mounting studs onto the studs with
the long flat side facing upward and the curved side
downward.
(7) Install the two upper power brake booster
mounting nuts on their studs.
(8) Tighten all four nuts fastening the brake pedal
bracket to the power brake booster to a torque of 34
N·m (300 in. lbs.).
(9) Tighten the two nuts fastening the brake pedal
bracket to the instrument panel support to a torque
of 34 N·m (300 in. lbs.).
(10) Install the power brake booster input rod on
the pin mounted on the side of the brake pedal.
Install a new retaining clip on the end of the pin. Do
