Hydroboost Firewall Plate

[bronconut73]

What are the pro's/con's of this flat bracket vs the offset bracket(ebay) that was posted earlier in this thread?

There is an off set bracket that puts the booster way over on the fenderwell.
WH has one that requires you clearance the hole in the firewall a little so it just moves the booster over a little.
Moving the booster over a little will make pulling the valve cover easier. Also make getting to those back spark plugs a little easier.
The one that goes all the way over to the fender well makes lots of room but if you wanted to mount something to that fender well it will be in the way.

Ultimately I think I will go with the regular BC bracket.
I want to put an oil cooler on my drivers fender well one day so I will just deal with the booster being kind of tight to the engine.

I just finished adding an 09 superduty hydro unit to my bronco. I used the stock superduty bracket by giving it a trim on one side to clear the bronco body tab, trimming the small tab off the inside so I could clock the unit, and redrilled it. Works great, very strong. Im into the whole upgrade about $180. By far the best thing ive done to the bronco yet. I will trim the adapter plate between the master and hydro unit so its looks a little better in the near future, it was just a piece of 3/8 aluminum plate I had laying around the shop. I had to lengthen the hydro pedal rod about 3/4 of an inch. Best damn mod ever, I can lock em up at will now.;D
