Welcome to FTE.

Well, if you mean hydraulic brakes, yes. BUT:

--

--you are in the wrong forum for brakes on large trucks. There is a large truck forum "up" from here:

Large Truck - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

--BUT before you go there, what is the year and model of your truck? Do you have the VIN and warranty/data plate info?

IF your truck is an F350, you may want to post in the appropriate year forum for the lighter truck. F4/450 and up, go to Large trucks.

The more info you post, the better the results. "Large" trucks have a couple of different systems.

AND what problems are you having?

Gather the info and post in the correct forum.

thanks.

It's a f700 with brakes that work off a pump similar to a power steering pump

Sounds like you have a hydroboost brake system.
