If you intend to do it all "from above" then yes the clutch master has to come out. It just gives you more room to work

I had to replace the servo so it was a pedal box out job for me, which i can honestly say, is the worst job to do on a Chimaera......ever!

I remember removing the clutch master, the brake pipes to the brake master cylinder and the 2 nuts from master to servo.

I did this to remove the brake master cylinder from the servo, to make it a little easier in removing the servo from inside the driver's footwell.

I also syphoned out the fluid from the brake master cylinder reservoir, and removed it, again just to give a bit more working space.
