jlosh20s Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 i searched high and low for these when i did mine was even going to get them custom made using stainless braided line autozone is hands down the cheapest place to get them and the stainless ones arent a good idea for many reasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlosh20s Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 good info on there but people on here shouldnt get confused when they start talking about the push rod lengths as long as any one with a silverado gets the hydro boost that came on 4wd tahoe or yukon ,denali,2500hd or escalades then you will be fine its just less confusing to get the escalade one 2002 and up there all the same and get the lines for the same vehicle and brake pedal for same vehicle and (power steering pump optional) and your done!!!!

Time2Kill Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 just wondering what's wrong with SS braided lines, are you talking high pressure teflon braid is bad idea ?that's what i use for presure side of ps pump also i remember reading somewhere that if the vac pump is not working or in this case disconected it fubars the drive by wire someway is your truck DBW The only problem I had with disconnecting the vac pump is that it throws an error on the dash. It can be easily fixed by putting a resistor between two wires in the connector. Never had any problems with the DBW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlosh20s Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 What's the GM part # for the new hydro power steering pump? Not sure just go to autozone and ask for a power steering pump off of a escalade and they will ask you hydro boost or not thats what i did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverado777 Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 This might be a dumb question but could I still do this mod with drum brakes in the rear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04CHASE Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 this is an awesome mod my truck stops stupid fast and i dont even have my baer 6 pistons on up front. most of my high press lines are custom ss braided as they needed to clear the driver side turbo . i found a guy on ebay selling custom plates so u can bolt the hydrobooster to your firewall with no drilling using the factory mounting pattern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
