• Q: How to replace the hydraulic brake booster on 2000 GMC Safari?

  A: The first step to replace a hydraulic Brake Booster consists of applying the parking brake followed by disconnecting reservoir hose and power steering hoses from the booster without touching brake pipes connected to the master cylinder. First support the master cylinder while removing the nuts and disconnect the Pushrod from the Brake Pedal. You should next take off each hydraulic booster mounting nut from inside the vehicle before you remove both the booster assembly and gasket. Begin by setting the new gasket on position and install the booster assembly before tightening its mounting nuts to 36 nm (27 ft. Lbs.). Fasten the Brake Pedal Pushrod before installing the master cylinder and tighten its nuts to 36 nm (27 ft. Lbs.). The power steering hoses need to be reconnected to the booster while using 27 nm force to tighten the hose fittings before proceeding with reservoir hose installation. Bleed the hydraulic Brake Booster before finishing with parking brake release.
