You got a link a link for parts. I can't find it, but I'll check your website again
Great video! Saw a lot of folks saying to not “T” together the returns because of back pressure that could mess with the HB. Can you debunk that concern as I’m short of a return inlet and would love to T together the returns. Also, can the return tank be higher than the HB? Some say the return from the HB needs to slope down. My setup doesn’t allow to run it down as the tank has only room above the HB. Thanks for your time!
great video can"t I use hydro booster on stocked drum brakes??
I bought this kit directly from the manufacturer an it's not even close to a direct fit. The brackets supplied look like the ones on a normal booster. But when mounted the hydroboost sits way to far from the firewall. Any idea of the right bracket i need to make it work? I've reach out to rightstuff an there tech line is useless. Says to send pictures through email but never respond when I do. Any help would be great
What year is your truck and what part number did you buy?
@@FirstPlaceAutoParts hbuk7387 1985 C10 SWB. Thank for the response
Do you have one made for a 68 Mustang GT w a 289 engine. Fm: Rey in Southern California.
Do you make a kit for a '70 C50?
Great video! Can the Hydro Booster be used on a front disc and rear drum vehicle system ?
It can and most kits will include a master cylinder and proportioning valve to be incorporated. If your existing vehicle is a front disc brake/rear drum brake combination with power steering already, many times a hydro-boost installation is a plug and play type installation
This is the best thing you can do with your classic car get rid og that vacuum booster
