Mike,

The power steering oil pump, the stearing gear box or the brake booster (brake "servo")??

Hi, Mike,
If you're talking about the brake servo, its quite easy.
I used a syringe to empty the resevoir. Then disconnect the brake pipes and remove the master cylinder.
Disconnect the vacuum pipe - at the manifold is easier.
Next, undo the 4 nuts holding the servo to the alli bracket and it should fall out!
The push rod from the brake pedal is not connected with a pin etc.

Any reason for taking it off (other than polishing)? [:p]
