Also, I've been told that hydroboost can be noisy. I'm not sure if that's normal operation or if that's when there's a problem.

Re: Buried to Bagged 1972 2wd
Looking good! I hope you get the hydroboost mount figured out. I love how mine operate on my truck and GTO. They stop about as well as a new car.

So you aren't scared off by Mark's experience I'll tell you what I know of the systems. I understand that when they fail, you would lose steering and brakes, but it's not a complete loss of either system. It's just like if your power steering pump goes out, you still have steering, it's just harder to do. It would be the same for the brakes. You can still stop and steer, it just takes more effort. If you break a line and lose all fluid, you would simply have a dry pump and no hydraulic assist. The manual connection is still there. If your brakes fail, you always have an e-brake (unless you removed it). Quote:
Again, I'm not an expert and I don't claim to be. I've only had the experience of the two systems on my vehicles. |

Well, this is kind of what I am thinking. Maybe a little darker blue than pictured but the rest is pretty close.

It might just work. The 55 Bel Air dash is much shorter than a Blazer dash, buy hey, we do this for the love of PITA.

It's just metal work... You obviously love doing metal work :lol:
It'll look good when you're done with it. I like the rendering too. Keep it up! |

The rendering is sick and love the idea of the 57 dash.

Where will you tank and compressors go? I'm trying to figure out where I can fit them on my Blazer.

This thing looks awesome!! I am really happy with my last minute color choices that I made with the powdercoat.
Attachment 1639322 Yes, those are LEDs in the frame for a little accent lighting. A throwback to Slick67. Attachment 1639323 Attachment 1639324 |
