GM Truck: Hydroboost Hydraulic Brake Booster – Remove & Replace

GM Truck: Hydroboost Hydraulic Brake Booster – Remove & Replace

Come along with Eric O. as we swap out this hydroboost brake booster on this 2002 Chevy 2500HD 6.0. This job is pretty similar to those with a vacuum assist brake booster that they use on a lot of the half tons. -Enjoy!

I love your videos. Can I put my 2 cents? I would like to see work accomplished on older vehicles, if you work on them. I have an 88 Dodge W100 4×4 that I work on. I'm sure you would love to work on old vehicles .

Im replacing mine but also have to replace the power steering pump. It must have been ran dry a lot by the previous owner. What should I do? And how should I do the bleeding and flushing?
