Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
Ryan, I think you'll like the hydroboost. I have it on my 01 hd and its hard to tell if the trailer brakes are working :)
Keep up the good work, Jud |

Motor mounts are a blast to build that clear everything on these trucks, huh?! Don't ya think you might be able to get a custom hardline built to get around it all? |

Custom power steering hoses are ridiculously expensive, tried that on the Corvette.

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
i cant tell for sure in your pic, but there may be room for a metric 0-ring to JIC #6 (AN6) adapter and a block 90* i did that on my jeep. then you can use standard hydralic pressure hose and fittings. you need two 16m and one 14m to convert the hydraboost and the steering pump. then another 16m for the box if it isnt a std. flare type. if i remember correctly. in doing the jeep including the hose and fittings for the Howe assist ram and box i think i may have spent 90$ on hydraulic hose and another 20-30$ on fittings. the adapters are 10ish bones apeice. pretty cheap for super stout and easy to make hoses.

You will have to source or build a spacer to get the turbo off the valve covers. Let me know if you need one, I have 2 of each. |
Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
Thanks again man, I'll be sure to let ya know!
Keep up the work! I'm goin back to mine now, I'm gettin jealous! |
Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
No more progress. I did get some fittings and wouldn't you know it, I can't get one in there either. I have a steel line I'm going to try to fit in there with some mods to the engine mount bracket. It's always got to be some thing!

Thanks for that link Tim! I doubt I'll do it to this truck though. :lol:

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
I've never cared much for the forward tilting hood. Seems like it would just get in the way. I would love to have the whole nose tilt forward. Now that would be handy.

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
New progress Ryan?

Ryan, have you got some pics of your corvette tilt? If I can figure out a way to do a tilt cleanly, I might attempt it.
