Looking for fittings for my hydroboost.
ok so apparently the fitting you need to convert your steering box drain is: "6AN Male Flare to M16x1.5 O Ring Seal Power Steering Adapter" type that in to amazon and you're in business. Mine's coming Monday, will report on fit.- We4ever

So I was putting new bulbs into my aftermarket gauges. The ones that go in the little coin tray. During this process my retarded ape hands accidentally shorted the bulb socket wires into something. There was a pop and now the HVAC lights, shift indicator and all lights controlled by the...- We4ever

As far as I'm aware the only function of the accumulator is to provide you with enough reserve pressure to get you a few extra stops soyld you suffer engine or power steering failure. If you got strong legs it shouldn't be a problem.- We4ever

Is a Turbobuick considered a Muscle car?
I consider it a down-market luxury GT 2+2. Like an american version of a big jaguar coupe or similar.- We4ever

This video shows how to change out the main piston seal. Be sure to put the new one in facing the same direction. Coating the new seal in grease makes the install much easier.- We4ever

When I first tried this job I was not sure if it was gonna work at all so, sadly, i did not document the construction. Despite this I believe I can demonstrate the procedure with the leftover parts. The only significant internal difference between the 79 cutlass and 95 3500 boosters is the...- We4ever

Got it all bolted in yesterday and no surprise the piston seal on the junkyard half was weeping. Got a seal kit from pirate jack on the way, should be able to do a road test by Tuesday. I think this might actually work!- We4ever

Thats why I asked. I used the word weaker because I figured the master from a 1 ton truck would generate more pressure in the line. I assumed a brake system designed to stop a huge truck and trailer would cause near instant lockup on a light car. Am I wrong? Im more than happy to be educated...- We4ever

Behold, Frankenbooster!
I've got a parallel thread on a gm truck forum. Trying to determine if I can fit a weaker master cylinder on this booster. Im worried the Jb8 will be a lockup monster or blow up my wheel cylinders. Also the truck I got the booster from had a proportioning valve that I didn't grab. Think I...- We4ever

The back half is from a 79 cutlass diesel reman from auto zone. The front half and piston is from a 1995 Chevy 3500 dually found in junk yard full of water. The benefits of this rig: It fits gn firewall, It fits the stock pedal, and 84 regal power steering hoses fit. Larger truck piston for...- We4ever
