Abstract
During assembly of a brake booster employed in a hydraulic brake system of an automotive vehicle, the two casing shells of the booster are moved relative to each other by compressing the elastic seal disposed between the two casing shells an amount until a predetermined distance is achieved between the surface at one casing shell used to mount a master cylinder on the booster and the force-transmitting end of the push rod of the booster. In this position, the two casing shells are then operatively connected to each other to maintain the predetermined distance. This method of assembly and the arrangement for implementing the method simplifies the manufacturing of a brake booster.
