Another fine moment of "What the hell was someone thinking"
08/31/11 08:45 PM


Brake booster finally blew out on my Yukon. It's been slowly getting worse, so it wasn't a surprise. I figured a vacuum leak in the diaphragm was the reason I could never get the sponginess bled out from the 1st inch or the brake pedal, so I was actually looking forward to doing it.

Fast forward to me removing the master cylinder to get the booster off:


"Hmm..something isn't right here...Why is there RTV between the master and the booster?...I don't recall this needing to be air tight...And wait, shouldn't there be a push rod between the master and booster pistons? What the....Why is the boosters piston all mashed up.....~awww JEEEZ~...Someone ~couldn't~ have been this stupid, right?"
