Question Hydraboost Question

Is there something unique about each version out there? I ordered two of them last night just to see what if any differences there are. I ordered one for a 1987 Chevy 1 ton truck and the other is the 93 Astro Van, I know with the Astro Van you need an adapter plate. I can order all factory style hoses thru work as well [O'Reilly].
Is one better than the other? Is there a model out there lighter in weight?

I'm sure CaptainFab will have an answer...

Re: Hydraboost Question

Well, after looking at them side by side the only difference I can see is rod length and depth and diameter of the master cylinder end. Would I have to get the rod between them at a wrecking yard? I'll look in our vast array of resources for that too.

The prices before tax were $163 and $187

Re: Hydraboost Question

I did hydroboost using stock GM parts. I'd have to go flip through all my receipts to find out which actual parts I bought.

I used stock lines, I just had to figure out a way to get the metric line to my old power steering gear. All the rest was simple bolt in (and trial and error)
