Anyone have a DIY writeup on replacing a brake booster?

It could have been your $1000 HHO generator that blew, then where would you be....?
If that sucker blew, the explosion would probably create a temporal rift, and the magnets on the fuel line would cause me to be propelled back in time

Friggin brake liner on one of the shoes broke off. That's what the problem was. And DAMMIT, I ordered those from Rock Auto, which sucks because my truck is my only vehicle and I need to have it operational before the replacements might arrive. Looks like I'm shopping local.

I don't think I've ever seen that happen before. What shoes were those?

Wagner. I checked the passenger side and the secondary one there is breaking/cracking bad.
