Leave the return spring out along with the star retaining washer. It can easily be reinstalled after the two halves are bolted together. This will have less spring pressure to fight upon reassembly and less chance of cutting the seal.

Caution... That groove where the seal fits into is EXTREMELY sharp...!!!

A tip to help remove the master cylinder from the hydroboost, and to give yourself more room to get the hydroboost off of the firewall is to remove the bolts that hold the master cylinder to the hydroboost. They are right hand thread (lefty tighty, righty loosey). Gives you an extra inch of clearance, and makes a world of difference in removal. Do the same for the reinstall. Reattaching those bolts with the master cylinder attached can be tricky, though.

Oh man I read a comment on getting the pins in.All you have to do is slowly push on the brake or rod.Those pins will come forward and you can just slip it on.Release the brake or brake rod slowly.

Wish me luck I just removed one from an H1 Hummer and it was a bit of work because it is buried underneath the CTIS system. Just watching this video and going to attempt to get it done tomorrow. 😅 Oh should mention I seen in another video when a guy went to split it after removing the bolts the thing had hydraulic pressure in it and he got sprayed pretty good. So always a good idea with the engine off to pump the brakes on and off at least four times to relieve the pressure.

Thnx alot for the video man really was so handy reparin it for my tahoe 2006 the only issue I faced is wen I replaced the seal it wasn't damaged or teardown it looks fine I think it only got weak coz f heat. Any way I placed the new O seal... while I was tryin to collect bouth parts together the new seal got damaged while tightening although I did lube it by steering fluid. I went bk to automobiles parts store he told me that the new seal made f Rubber the OEM seal was silicone. So he gave me another 1 but I ordered 2 in case somthin wrong happens. Again I opened the booster placed the new silicone seal it was hard gettin it in position . collected both parts tightened up brought it bk in the vehicle unfortunately it was leaking 🙄🙄🙄. I was so disappointed coz it was like a full day f workin on that part. 😣😣😣 I placed a wired cam in the booster wot I found is while I was tightening the bolts somhow the seal got crushed by the piston. steering fluid lube didn't work. Again I took it out went through the whole process I placed the last seal I got lubed by grease I just used it so lightly I used it on both piston & seal while I was tightening both parts I was lookin from the other side wich looks like the spider nest I used a flat screw driver to pull the seal on place while I was tightening the bolts the process was like tight a bit, take a look, push the seal in it place, repeat 🔂 till both pats joined together.

I just found out THIS Is My Problem on 1998 Chev C3500 454 gas. This has been VERY VERY Helpful. I just need the down time to fix this in Winter 2023-24 ! Well done I hope I get the chance to do it. Rock Auto rebuild Kit ?

Good man. Thank you for sharing. God bless you

Do you think the master cylinder will cause all 4 brakes to slightly drag? I can release each one when I open the bleeder screw. Once I drive it for about 3-7 minutes it starts back dragging. I say slightly dragging because I can jack up the truck and turn them by hand with a lot of force. No leaks on the master cylinder or hydro boost. I’ve greased slider pins, bleeding the brakes 3 times, topped off the fluid on both power steering and brake fluid. Power steering is making the whining noise. Pedal is hard not soft. It’s a 2004 Suburban with hydro boost system. Please help.

Thank you for the excellent video. I’m about to tackle my leaking hydro boost.

So, I'm finally getting to this job today, and my question is this- my rebuild kit came with a lot of other seals, rings, brass fittings and some other stuff. Where do all those parts go?? I'd sure hate to go to all the trouble of replacing the inner seal and then find out there were other seals leaking that I didn't replace. ???

Do yourself a favor and get a 3/8" drive impact 15 mm deep well wobble socket ($20) and couple it to a 12" 3/8" drive extension. This and an impact is all you need to get the 4 nuts off the inside of the firewall. (If not already, get a cordless impact. You'll be surprised how much you use it. Plus, it busts off lug nuts and other high torque nuts with ease.) I replaced the seal with the hydro boost still mounted to the firewall. I was so proud of myself, but going back together, gravity was not on my side and I broke the rod that is internal of the booster. So, don't do that! I ended up having to replace the hydro boost, because that rod I broke is not sold separately. $200 lesson I thought I'd share. Using the tools I mentioned above, you can have it out in 15 minutes, if not sooner. Then you can stand it up on its end to reassemble it. That part is a piece of cake. PS, you will need a normal size flat tip screwdriver to pop the metal keeper off the main rod that connects to the brake pedal. You can rotate that metal keeper with your finger tips so you can get the screwdriver in it. Then just rotate the screwdriver to flex the metal keeper.

For some reason, the little plunger that sits on top of that little bitty cone mine does not look like that. It has three little bitty round hose. Also, when I split mine apart, it sprayed fluid all over me and everybody else he working on them there's does not spray.

I’m having trouble with a 2004 Suburban and all 4 brakes are dragging slightly and the power steering is whining when I turn. The brakes will release whenever I open the bleeder screw. HELP!!!

Had a failed rebuild puke fluid all over because i think i caught the seal on the way back in. Went with a reman unit fixed my issues.

Wow just stumbled upon your videos never seen any of your videos before, your actually quite good really enjoyed watching. My power steering cylinder started to drain fluid, hence starting leaking, or rather emptied overnight and had a loud screeching sound, so went to AutoZone to pick up some power steering, and topped up my power steering reservoir, it seems it's leaking from the middle where the hydro boost and the master brake cylinders touch is where it's leaking, but there shouldn't be any power steering fluid in between only in-between the hrdro boost, I guess it's dripping down and looks like it's coming From in-between the hydro and master cylinder. Anyways will try to remove the hydro booster and change the o-rings and hope that's the problem. Maybe you would know I have a 2010 Chevrolet Express 2500, I had a new power steering pump put in, I had my steering column greased all the way down to the axle or wherever. But point being my steering is extremely hard, yes just now my power steering seems to be leaking wonder if I need to get a whole new hydro booster and maybe that would help for the rough steering on my vehicle? unless you think one of the lines the high pressure or low pressure is clogged? it's legit really annoying when you're in a tight spot and the vehicle not in motion really hard to turn the wheel.

You can try lucas power steering leak but it's at best a bandage to slow the leak a little. If you are leaking a lot, this applies to any type of leak, you have to trace the issue and properly fix it. No additive is going to "fix" a bad seal. They can slow it down a bit and buy you time but it's not normally going to be worth the cost of the additive.
