Big-cam engines, diesel swaps and crowded engine bays are exactly where a vacuum booster falls short on a '73-87 GM or GMC C/K truck. This Right Stuff hydro-boost upper assembly runs off the power steering pump instead of engine vacuum, so pedal assist stays consistent no matter what the cam or the vacuum gauge is doing. It's set up for trucks with front disc and rear drum brakes.
Why It's Worth It
- Hydraulic assist that doesn't depend on engine vacuum
- Comes matched with an aluminum dual-port master cylinder, 1.125" bore, with cap
- Smaller than a large vacuum booster, which helps around headers, big blocks and swaps
What's Included
- Hydro-boost unit and master cylinder combo with master cylinder cap
- Mounting bracket and mounting hardware
- Brake pedal rod extension
- Bleeder hoses
Before You Order
- Built for disc/drum systems; confirm your truck's brake setup before ordering
- Your power steering pump has to support hydro-boost, and pressure/return hoses to the pump aren't listed as included
- Bleed the system and check the pedal rod length after install
