Master Cylinder Replacement

Is it necessary to remove the tranny to replace the master cylinder? Any write-ups out there? My master cylinder is leaking bad and I need to replace it asap.

Peace
Ever

Master cylinder is on the firewall below the brake booster, it's removed by unbolting from under the dash. Slave cylinder is on the transmission & I would guess replacing that would require trans R&R.

you don't have to drop the tranny to replace the master. Installuniversity has a good write up.
