Re: Hydroboost brake swap?

It's a very straight forward swap. You should be able to complete it in a couple hours. All you have to do is take the studs out of the hydro-boost booster, and then just use the 4 that are already in your firewall from the vacuum booster. After that, everything is very straightforward.

BUT... you will have to change out your steering box if you do the swap. Or get creative with some compression clamp and cut your old steering lines up. I chose to cut my old lines and it's worked fine for me. The problem with the Hydro-boost system is that the steering lines are a bigger size than the normal steering box lines. If you have any problems, just ask.
