We have the same year and model as your coach. To replace the
brake booster, I removed the screws along the bottom of the dash
(at the firewall) and then propped the dash out with some blocks.
I also removed the glove box (the whole thing will come out,
door and all), and I think also pulled the leveling valves
out of the way so I could reach/see through that hole.
That gave me enough access to get at the booster bolts
without cutting anything.

If you're installing a sensitized booster with the metric mounting studs,
they're a little bigger diameter than original. If you enlarge
the bolt holes through the firewall slightly, it'll be a lot
easier to get the new booster in place.
