Quick question on replacing brake booster

1988 Toyota Pickup, 22RE, 4wd, manual tranny. My brake booster has gone out on me while I'm on the road 1,000 miles away from home. I've got tools with me and want to change it out in a parking lot but don't want to have to crack the lines to the master cylinder to do it. Is it possible to change the booster out without un-doing the lines to the master cylinder?

Thanks in advance,
Justin

yes. be very careful not to kink or crack them. i would suggest doing it right over risking more work. i would rather bleed a whole system then bleed a whole system after replacing a hard line... IMHO.
