Attachment 795278 the Astro hydro boost bolted right up to the bracket I bought from Captainfab for the vacuum booster.

Attachment 795279 I grabbed the metric O-ring hoses off the Astro. I cut them apart and then had NAPA crimp on some fittings that have 3/8" compression style connections which made installation a easy thing.
Attachment 795280 I bled the brakes and the power steering and went test driving. Pretty nice brakes now. Maybe a little too soft and touchy . Might have to drive it for a while and get used to it and see if it will work.


Hello. I was wondering if you could take some detailed photos of the lines how there ran on your hydro boost setup from top to bottom cause I hear ppl say to T them an I'm more a visual learner than reader. Did you use the factory astro van lines ? I just bought mine yesterday I wanted to start next weekend
