    HydroBoost Conversion

    Need better stopping power? Or are you pushing through your brakes with boosted trucks? You need a hydrobooster conversion. Very low miles hydrobooster power steering pump and booster assembly is for sale. No leaks on both unit. This were my back up parts. Easy bolt-on. You will need to get the two high pressure lines. One from the pump to the booster and from the booster to the steering gear. Then some rubber hose for the return lines. Came from an 05 tahoe. You may need a different brake petal, because of the lenght in push rod may be different in your truck. And may need to trim your hole in the firwall to clear the unit. But there is a mark behind your vaccum booster you can see where to cut. I know there will be a lot of questions on this from what I said may need to be done. I have done this on mine and others. See photobucket pics. PM with any question. $300.00 Will ship for extra.

    South Austin no hoses, but there most all the same. you don't have to switch the pumps but will have to add a T-fitting for the return on your old pump. Ya you could have gotten most vehicle with hydroboost. You may have to change your brake pedal to match the length of the push rod on the booster.
