If you have ever owned a buggy you know that getting good brakes is nearly impossible. We do suggest mounting both the master and slave cylinder with the fittings facing up so you can bleed air out of the system. The kit is designed to weld to a piece of tubing which allows you to mount the unit in any orientation. This kit has a pedal and master cylinder that mount in the traditional location that connects to the hydroboost unit via a -3an brake line (not included). This kit allows you to remote mount the hydroboost kit anywhere in the vehicle! Put it under the passenger seat, under the dash, beside the frame rail. With the minor $$ cost added, it should've been a stock item from the beginning.īut back then (early 2000s), new HB units were $400-500+labor, so there's a profit incentive I guess.REMOTE MOUNT HYDROBOOST KIT! Many people want to run hydroboost but cannot fit the large components. Now I believe, it's included in the new trucks, while it was only an option years ago. With the cooler added and the heat load removed, regular dino PS fluid will hold up just fine between flushes.Īfter a long day of towing, steering won't groan and whine while you're backing the rig in. Of course, if you've suffered thru the chronic issues over time(low fluid-replace one line, low fluid-replace the other line, more low fluid-replace the HB unit), and as a result have run the pump low on fluid many times, the damage there is done and you may see a new PS pump in your future, even after adding the fluid cooler.
New HydroBoost, 'bout $200/no core charge.Īdded bonus, with the added PS fluid cooler, you also increase system fluid capacity. Rock has both of the lines for 'bout $40 (Gates, probably the source for acDelco, those are few $$ more if you want a diff name on the same thing). Remove the heat load, stock high pressure lines don't decay, the PS pump's life continues on, and you may never replace a HydroBoost unit again.įor as little as $35, you can solve the problem.
