[QUOTE="gnxtc2, post: 1549777, member: 1414"] Haven't posted here in awhile. Just finished my power steering/hydroboost swap. I originally was running the F-SuperDuty hydroboost unit along with the matching master. Although the truck stopped fine but the brake pedal feel was not correct. So I found a Ford F-53 Hydroboost unit and purchased the OBS F250/F350 master. The master is obsolete so I settled with a Raybestos unit. Since this going to require some custom hoses, I decided to swap the fittings to -6AN. Hydroboost unit: Aeroquip FBM2608 - 16mmx1.5 - 6AN Aeroquip FBM2609 - 18mmx1.5 - 6AN TechnaFit FTS 185009 5/16-24 o'ring Pump: TechnaFit FTS 306-06-M16DW 16mmx1.5 with Dowty Washer Gear (4 bolt cover) Russell 648010 1/2-20 -6AN o'ring seal I bend up some 3/8 stainless tubing and single flared the ends with tube nuts. I covered the power steering lines with silicone fire sleeve. I rotated the pump fluid inlet to a better position. The non-pressure hose is Parker Pusk-Lok hose with Fragola hose ends. The feed line is 3/4 (-12) and the return is 3/8 (-6). The return lines are "T'd" together (OEM tube cooler, hydroboost unit and reservoir) I forgot to grab a pic of how I mounted the Ford reservoir. The OEM reservoir has a build in screen for filtering. Also, I replaced the stock steering shaft with the Borgensen shaft. I'm eventually probably going to swap in a Blue Top gear. Since my truck has the 4 bolt cover, I want to find a core and send that one in so I don't have any down time. Didn't drive the truck yet, ran out of time.
