Hydroboost + Master Cylinder

Post by BroncoRaider »

Partsgeek has some refurbished hydroboost units for a 2000 F-150. Would these fit the Bronco? Thanks.

I don't think the F150 came with hydroboost? I could be wrong about that. Maybe F250?

Yes it is off the F-250. My mistake. Will this fit?

It's not as straightforward as the Astro h-boost, but has been done before. Here's one good write-up: http://www.emotoman.com/4x4/hydroboost/hydroboost.html.

Besides those from the Astro Van, hydroboosts from Ford Mustangs, Mercury Grand Marquis, Ford Super Duty diesels and Ford diesel Expeditions, and Chev. pickups all have been used in early Broncos.

The Astro hydroboost isn't the only one that works, just common and cheap.
