Clutch booster Rebuild
alright guys here's the rebuild I did on my clutch booster. cost me less than 100 and works as good as new!
step 1:
remove everything off front of booster and undo everything inside the firewall that is connected to the booster. should be 4 nuts holding it in place.
here's what you get:

1 stuffed booster
step 2: put booster into vice and clamp it with the 4 studs Inside and the main shaft pointing DOWN. don't squeeze the crap out of it, just enough to hold it in place and not move.

here's the fun part...
step 3: get a piece of square bar about 400-500mm long. drill 2 holes in it to slip over 2 diagonal opposing studs, make sure you've removed the little rubber seal and washer with a screwdriver and remove the shaft that goes into the master cylinder.

now use it as a massive breaker bar ad PUSH!!! will take a bit of muscle!! you need to rotate the top half until the little gaps line up and you can seperate the 2. THE 2 HALVES ARE SPRING LOADED. TAKE CARE SEPERATING!
here's what you get

pretty much, from here just replace all the corresponding parts.
make sure everything is clean before you out it back together, and paint the outside if you wish!
here's some more pics if they help!

Outstanding work there bloke. I probably would have just chased a second hand one but your the man!! Nice one!
Would the Brake Booster be the same task? must be very similar?

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

cheers mate!
yeah I got quoted 250, reasonable, but I was a poor student at the time Nd I freakin love doing stuff myself. learn more about stuff and how to properly diagnose problems this way
brake booster is exactly the same! just a bigger diaphragm really!

Good job.
My clutch booster has completely stopped working now. The brake booster is intermittent too, although could just be a lack of vacuum from the clutch booster leaks.

if they're both not working and you're not losing fluid I'd be checking your vacuum pressure man. probs a leak somewhere!
