I finally get around to doing the job that I had been dreading. Removing the pedal box. To remove the pedal box, the steering column first has to come out. It is an involved job but I learnt a lot on the way!

I recall the clutch mastercylinder on my '85 car having a captive pushrod. In any case, I'd suggest at least rebuilding the master cylinder, given the amount of work needed to access it. On my '85 car it was a sized master that had caused the pedal to bend, the slave was free. Likewise with the servo, have a good look inside at the diaphragm and ideally check it for vacuum leaks.

It was a bit awkward at times Karl, but I took it step by step and got it done.

You don't need to remove the steering wheel to get the instruments out.

Thanks Andrew, it did not look like it would pass without dropping the steering column or removing the wheel. Once the wheel had been released with the puller, it is a 2 minute job to remove the wheel. Cheers!
