late model Hydraboost on a 69

I bought a unit from a board member for $100 and its off a 85 1 ton dually to put on my car hauler project

This simply bolted on with 2 holes to drill in the hydrabooster Bracket.. Now the only thing i need to finish is lengthen the rod about 1/2 inch...I am going to make it adjustable to for pedal height..

Re: late model Hydraboost on a 69

I have one a 84 burb I'm parting out and was thinking on using it on mine. I was wondering if the power steering pump used for those is mounted the same as my existing PS pump? Any pics of your PS pump and hose connections to that hydro unit?

Re: late model Hydraboost on a 69

I can get pics of the pump..and stuff, Its snowing heavy right now..5 inches on everthing...I want spring..now...

Give me a few days for pics... The pump will require the use of the long water pump setup,Unless you put a t-fitting in the existing return on orignal 67-72 pump...You need 2 returns on the hydraboost setup..one from box..one from booster ,Now the late model fitting in the pump will need to be changed to the old 67-72 pump so the new o-ring type hose will work.
