The bronco vacuum booster angle plate or the hydroboost unit on the 97 Astro? I’m keeping the bronco angle plate if that’s what you’re getting at.

I have not seen what the Astros booster looks like. Just an ad saying he’s parting it out
The later astro van units mounted with an angle bracket but you can change it.

Nice! Thank you. There’s a 92 in a upull it yard, maybe I’ll look at that first. Also trying to figure out if I should be using the proportioning valve out of the van, or is it better to buy one.

Have a manual set up rn. I do have a 76 d44 going back on tho.

Adjustable one maybe better, 90-93 astrovan has 1/2" hole in push rod 94-95 has a 5/8" hole .
The push rod length is around 6" to center of hole.

Is this all that I’m after what is in this link? Plus the master?

I’m driving 2 hours tomorrow to a you pull it for one. But if this is all I need I’ll just buy this.

That’s what I put on mine I took the hoses off with it and used the tubing from the hoses at the booster end.
I had to put a clevis on the push rod after cutting it to length.

This is what I picked up. Was I suppose to snag the hoses? I figured I would need longer ones

Idk might be a core. It was 20 bucks

I have a hose kit that costed me 175.00 if you interested in it I’ll sell for 150. I didn’t use it cause it didn’t have a fitting to fit the explorer pump.

It’s universal with -6an fittings and reusable hose ends. High pressure ang return hose. I used the brass 3/8” T for my returns and that’s it. I’m sure there is a fitting in this kit to fit the saginaw
