I'm about to replace the leaking brake booster and master cylinder on my 1980 300D. It seems a pretty straightforward remove and replace project, aside from the always fun and effortless bleeding of the brakes. I'm planning on cleaning and reusing the plastic reservoir. Anyone out there performed the master cyclinder / booster replacement and have any advice / troublespots etc?

Thanks.

I have replace the booster but not the master cyl on a MB. The booster is straight forward withe no surprises.

With the way the res fills the rear cell it takes a little longer than expected....take your time and dont over fill it, it has to "settle in"
