• Q: How to replace the vacuum brake booster on 2000 Cadillac Escalade?

  A: First, take out the negative Battery Cable and then engage the park brake before replacing the vacuum Brake Booster. Remove the nuts that hold the master cylinder and then pull out the master cylinder and bracket. Start by removing the hose and the retainer, then the stoplamp switch and Pushrod and finish by taking out the assembly and the gasket by removing four nuts. The first step is to place the gasket, then the booster assembly and tighten the four nuts to 36 nm (26 ft. Lbs.). After that, fit the Pushrod, stoplamp switch and retainer and finally the vacuum hose. After checking the booster Pushrod, put in the master cylinder and bracket while fastening the master cylinder nuts with 30 nm (20 ft. Lbs.) torque. After that, let go of the park brake and join the negative cable to the battery again.
