How much room do you need for the EFI? My arrangement is a bit different from what I have seen with the angle brackets. I fabricated a bracket using a bell crank as well, but I mounted the crank horizontal. This allowed me to move the booster about 8"-9" toward the driver's side fender. If...

Do yourself a favor - check out hydratech on the web. They sell the fittings for the hydrobooster, pump, and your steering gear. Afterwords, any hydro hose shop can make up your hoses with femal ends. The input hose from the hydro-booster to the steering gear has much pressure on it; I had a...

68 Broncoholic - Thanks. I believe I just found the problem. While cranking it this morning, it spit, (to an idiot like me that is timing related. Apparently when I was doing all the work changing out my PS pump & hydro-booster, etc... I must have bumped my distributor - it was loose. Now my...

Guys, I have a 302 in my 72'; when I purchased from the PO, he had put a newer model 302 in (around a 1980) Years ago I put a Holley 4 brl carb on and couldn't believe how well the engine ran. Recently I did allot of work on my front end - nothing related to the engine. My Bronco suddenly...

Thanks for the info. Do you guys think that a set off a F250 hood would work? They are only about 17" lg and mount really close to the base of the hood. I wonder if there will be too much weight from the mounts out.

Guys, How much elevation change do you get with the wiper drop bracket? In other words, how much lower is the wiper motor from the original position?

Hydroboost Bracket Guys, I built my own bracket that is a little different than most I've seen; I just couldn't get use to the angle idea, so I made a bell crank & simply moved it over toward the left front fender. As you can see, I'm not done with it yet, but the crank works great. If I...

Guys, I think I have read almost every post concerning hydro-boost; what a great bunch of guys - good ideas. I have acquired an Astro hydro unit, made a bracket & mounted, decided to go with the Astro pump w/remote tank. Have mounted remote reservior, have made bracket & mounted PS pump...

How are you mounting? I decided to create a mounting plate that is a little different than those I have seen. I used a bell crank, but I have the crank mounted horizontal. This allowed me to move the H-boost out over the inner fender and away from the engine. (Actually I stole the idea from...

I know some of you wiser guys get tired of idiots like me, but her goes; I have a couple of questions; 1. I am using the PS pump out of the Astro to power my H-boost and steering. The Astro has a serp. pulley, (about 6-1/2" dia). I have a V-belt set up that currently runs about a 4" pulley for...

Do I just remove the brake rod and mount it?

Thanks Broncoman & War Eagle! My stock MC is the reason I did this modification in the first place, (leaking fluid in my already rusty floor). I figured, what the heck I'll go hydro boost. I like the looks of the straight aluminum MC from the Astro, but wasn't sure if it is proportioned...

Guys, Yes, its another stupid question... I'm doing the Astro Hydro-boost set up. I noticed that many of you guys are using different Master Cylinders. Presently I'm running drums all the way around, (don't have the cash for front disc yet). Could I use the MC that came of the Astro even...

Guys, I'm doing the Astro hydro-boost on my 72'. I didn't like the idea of an in-line "T" fitting, so I decided to use the power steering pump and remote resevior off an Atro as well. I'm ashamed to ask this, but... There is a small return on the pump as well as the resevior. Do I return...

Thanks Hunter, I was thinking about something like that, but what I'd really like to do is raise the connection location from the brake lever. I mounted my booster so high, (for clearance), that as I'm pressing the pedal, the angle of the push rod is such that the push rod hits the booster...

Guys, Your write-ups for Hydro-boost have been great; I think I've read all the post associated with them. I am in the process of adding the Astro conversion to my 72'. I wanted a slight angle in order to maximize the clearance with the engine, so I began playing around with mounting methods...
