what's the trick to getting the brake booster out of a 2004 venture. I looks like I might have to slide the ABS system back in order to get the the booster away from the firewall.

Hello,

You must remove the brake master cylinder first.

Then undo the push rod clip followed by the firewall mounts bolts, Here are some diagrams (below) to help you get the job done.

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

I attached the process from the manual. Can you review this and let us know if there was something that you missed? If you still can't get it out can you get pictures of what you are dealing with so that we can see what the issue may be?

Let's start here and let us know if you need more help. Thanks
