FAQ_Q1 What types of vehicles are hydraulic boosters used on?
FAA_A1 Hydraulic boosters are most commonly used on heavy duty pickup trucks and industrial applications. However, hydraulic boosters can be found on passenger vehicles as well.
FAQ_Q2 What type of fluid does a hydraulic booster require?
FAA_A2 As part of the power steering system, hydraulic boosters require O.E. power steering fluid.
FAQ_Q3 Will I need to retain my master cylinder pushrod?
FAA_A3 Yes, the master cylinder pushrod, spring and retainer will need to be retained and reused on the replacement hydraulic booster.
FAQ_Q4 How much PSI of power steering pressure should a hydraulic booster have?
FAA_A4 The hydraulic booster is designed to operate within the pressure range of the power steering system. In most cases this is at least 1200 PSI (deadhead pressure).
FAQ_Q5 Will I need to bleed my power steering system after installation?
FAA_A5 Yes, since the power steering lines have been removed, the system has been subjected to air. The power steering system will need to be bled using the O.E. bleeding procedure.
FAQ_Q6 What is the best way to identify a hydraulic booster?
FAA_A6 Most hydraulic boosters are equipped with a pedal rod identification number. These numbers are stamped on the end of the pedal rod near the eyelet. The pedal rod identification number is one of the most accurate ways to choose the correct replacement hydraulic booster.
FAQ_Q7 How can I test my hydraulic booster?
FAA_A7 A hydraulic booster can be tested just like a vacuum booster. With the engine off, pump the brake pedal until you feel firm resistance, then hold. Start the engine. Proper operation should result in the brake pedal slightly sinking.
FAQ_Q8 Does my hydraulic booster require flushing?
FAA_A8 Yes, the hydraulic booster should be flushed along with the power steering system. This should be done in accordance with the O.E. maintanence intervals.
FAQ_Q9 Can I convert my vehicle to a hydraulic boost system?
FAA_A9 This is possible, but not recommended. Altering or modifying a brake system puts the vehicle at higher risk of brake failure.
