Main reason I went hydro I was tired of the boosters going bad stopping 35s. Then feeling the difference in braking I bought a kit for the other bronco. I also have a line lock on my 72

Hydroboost is awesome!
Got my rear discs from a 98 Explorer I parted out. Made more selling parts than I paid for it so rear disc was free... Happy with it but not totally necessary...

Rear disc is very good if your in a lot of mud or sand.

One of the other benefits is brake feel.
I am still non-power so this may change when I go hyrdoboost, but I can feel the slightest lock-up and modulate the pedal for it.
As Sandmann says, totally unnecessary, but I still love them.
By going with the BC kit it allowed me to buy the parts in stages, making it very affordable.


Oh and yes just go ahead and start collecting parts for hyrdoboost, you will not be disappointed.
