Looks like I'm headed down the hydroboost path. Picked up a new hydroboost unit from a 2000 F250 Superduty. There were no hoses available for me grab. Does anyone know the fitting size/type for the two power steering connections on the hydroboost unit?

X2 on Hydratech. Excellent people, just order everything at once, otherwise they charge you $9 to ship a $4 part.

FYI I couldn't find the brass tee locally, I tried using a plastic one, it didn't work so well...

I went to a hydraulic hose shop and had them braze some fittings to the end of the stock metal tubes from the unit and then make custom hoses. Heres some pics.

They should be the 16mm-1.5 and 18mm-1.5. I have some left over if you're interested. Are you going to do braided stainless lines?
