    Hydrobooster

    I have three hydrobootser two witch are for sale. One is on my truck now, checking to see if it leaks and the other one is in the box. They have a 4" push rod length. Good for a hydro conversion like I did. They sould fit 1999-2006 trucks. My have to enlarge your firewall to fit. When you remove your factory booster you will see what needs to be trimmed. If the four bolt partern is not the same you can drill a new hole in the hydrobooster backing plate and add one bolt. the one on my truck right now any has three and it holds fine. $100 each.

    Vacuum isn't required for power brakes so big cams with low idle vacuum and turbos or SC's with low starting line vacuum still can stage at the line and boost up. Helps for towing too....hence my 8400 pound rated towing cap Denali has it OEM.

    You can most likely use your master cylinder, go to the salvage yard and pick up a powersteering pump and may have to change your brake pedal. Do to different push rod lengths. I had to get one out of a duramax.

    I think the mastercylinders are different. The brake pedal will need to be changed. Can pick one up from a salvage lot or from a dealer for around $35. Powersteering pump is not required but some people run the pumps off the 3/4 ton trucks cause they output shafts are bigger dia and stronger. Anyone needin help with the conversion let me kno and I can email ya a link to aid you in the swap. Thanks Thomas

    HOw would this work on my 04 Denali ? The brakes suck on this truck and I'm reading on the denali forum that it isn't the pads or rotors that need help but the lines and the booster . If this would help I think I'd rather do these things than pull of the rotors and pads
