Hydroboost conversion questions
For those that have done the hydroboost brakes conversion...
My stock steering pump is going bad, so would it be best to use the '97 F-Superduty pump for the conversion?
Are any of the stock PS lines re-used or the same?
Can someone give me a diagram of how the pressure lines run and also how the return lines run?
Any help is appreciated...

I think I've got it figured out now.
Did some research on it, found some good sites with info.

Hopefully it will be done in the next month or two. I'll take pics and do a write-up if I can.
My steering box is getting to the end of it's life (lots of slop) and my pump isn't doing much better. Plus I'd like to to improve my brakes. So it makes sense to do the hydroboost conversion at the same time.
Then hopefully disc brakes at some point after that...
