Removing my booster, take off these nuts?...

I also have those open end wrenches that have the notch so it has a ratcheting motion. Don't know what they're called, but I thought it was a joke until I tried them. Use them all the time.

except that one nut thats on the bottom towards the side of the car. I couldnt get a wrench on it for the life of me, and a ratchet wouldnt fit. Finally moved the hard brake lines and managed to get it loose. Overall it took me about 10 minutes to do, but I saved a few minutes because that little pin thing is supposed to be held on by a clip, which is MIA. Relatively easily pushed out. I dont have an engine in it either so the bottom inside nut might be more difficult with one in place but I dont know for sure.

But I had a bang up time getting those bolts off, but unbolting the thing from the firewall was easy as could be. Then I wondered if I had just done that first if it would have been way easier to unbolt the break booster after the whatchamacallit had been removed from the firewall first. Follow?

Because those top nuts are nothing compared to the ones beneath it.

If you remove the break cylinder first, it really should work. Any objections anyone?

If you try it and screw something up let me know.

Off course I am not liable. :-)

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
