My brake pedal came out with springs completely and a hissing noise from the spot where the rod was. Just did the brakes. New calipers, rotors and pads, was bleeding system before I thought I was happily done. I severely need this car for a new job within days, just sank pretty much all money into this. Help please, emergency!

Sure thing, including additional pictures of rubber boot that came off, fabric washers or something. That picture is the best I could get it reassembled so far. Thank you so far I appreciate it!

Thinking brake booster. I would have to go to the junkyard for it at this point. I just sank pretty much all my money into the brakes last night. What are you thinking? Super thank you for any advice so far.

I'll try again to respond so others can get the fix on this. Yes, replacement of the brake booster fixed it. Resolved! Thanks for your help, good job!
