Default Trouble with clutch master cylinder

My master and/or slave cylinder on my clutch is going so im replacing them both. I cant get the master cylinder to line up with the holes in the fire wall. Im not sure if I should remove the brake boost or what.

if the 95 is the same as a 93 you shouldnt have to. are you sure its not something on the inside messing it up.

How did you do it? Did you line up the master cylinder to the firewall, then stick the u-bolt in? or did you put the u-bolt in the master cylinder, then stick it in the firewall?

How did you get your hand back there to line up the side of the u-bolt behind the booster?
