Oh, no, of course not :)

Actually, I have a hard time stopping the car rolling off a slight incline if
the engine is not running.

I had a hard time changing it on my 68 LeBaron.  Partly due to the hard
accesibility of one of the nuts (I think upper right) and partly due to my new
booster not being the exact same size.  I wish they had those nuts welded on
the firewall, like my 67 Volvo.
