power steering box and handbrake removal

Recommended Posts

What a mission. Ive got an xe Fairmont with a 302 put in it. First I removed the inner hand brake cable normally not too bad but the headers I have are a bit close to the 3 nuts. Had to bodge up a bit of a tool to get to one.  Then the power steering box. No way it was coming out the bottom and didn't really feel like lying under the car taking starter and exhaust off. so took the brake booster out and removed it that way.  Will take some photos of the tight spots tomorrow.
