I don't like the 4x4 front end on the newer ones, its just like the 2wd.

They just can't figure out to go back to the D60.

Do you guys think it will be worth it to convert my f250 to a hydroboost system my booster is starting to give way? I already have converted the truck to be a one ton truck with 3/4 ton badging. Why would a hydrobooster be blowing out the brake lines?

Heavy foot lol. If you are like me and keep your rig forever yes, if you are likely to get rid of it in the near future no. It will make no difference on sale day.
If you are running oversize tires I would say yes too.

I know it doesn't seem like but your brakes have to work harder to stop the 305s compared to235s. I have not done it but ithas to be a good upgrade and if you are going to be out a booster any way, now would be the best time.
