Hey buddy is Oscar from Jacksonville Florida Man you did such a good job rebuilding the Hydroboost, thanks so much for showing US how to do it I have a 04 f250 6.0 4x4 and i guess i have to do the same job you just did. my Hydroboost is leaking a lot of power steering and i need to do something. I have the seals already so that's why i am doing researches and i saw your video. Thanks again and good luck in every project you do.
I used to work as a mechanic. if I had a whole kit I install a whole kit that would guarantee my labor.by the way is better to clean the parts .my humble opinion.
Bad habits are hard to break, but you can step it up a little cleaning the parts, and the work bench, with some gloves on as you go!!...you already have the skills!!, and great video that really helped!!..much appreciated!!!
Is there a certain direction for the dump valve? I put new seals in my hydroboost from my 18’ ram 2500 6.7 (the hydroboost and power steering were working perfect other than a leak). Mine doesn’t leak but now there’s a hiss when turning the steering wheel and when you turn it applies the brakes. Something is not right. The brake work fine .
Guess some folks idea of clean, a rebuild, or a rubber mallet are different than others. When he put the pushrod in before putting it back together again I knew he didn’t have a clue to how these things function.
@@DiehlDoes Lol well that'll show'em...... sometimes there is another way to skin that cat as they say..... ( what a weird saying now that I think about it... )
Great info but if you take on this job be sure to pull everything apart and thoroughly clean it all then clean your hands then reassemble using only clean fluid to lube seals crud will cut the service life of your new seals among other things drastically.it sucks but you'll be glad you did.
Buddy, you will destroy your hands banging on the wrench handle like that. Hold part with one hand push wrench with other get a cheater bar and after a while maybe a bench vice.
They say if that rod is "staked" then you can't do it. That rod would need to be cut to slide the seal out and then welded back together - not the best thing to have parts cobbled together with your brakes.
Speaking of cobbled... Clean your F@ing work area and the shit your working on. That shit so nasty you need a level 5 bio hazard suit to work in there. You can not do a good job on repairing things that are so grimy you can't give a good visual inspection for bore scoring and so on. And to lay your brand new seals on that oily table that's grit grime and SAND that's going to trash your work. Don't know about the SAND and from looks of it you don't either but it could be. This is why it still leaked when you put it back in. Now that being said I'm just busting your ball here because you have potential turning wrenches but for God's sake don't make yourself look like a dumb dumb and put that hog a stigh on video. At least you wasn't wearing a gay pair of gloves worried about getting your hands dirty. Lol 😆 Good video no hard feelings
Hey buddy is Oscar from Jacksonville Florida
Man you did such a good job rebuilding the Hydroboost, thanks so much for showing US how to do it
I have a 04 f250 6.0 4x4 and i guess i have to do the same job you just did.
my Hydroboost is leaking a lot of power steering and i need to do something.
I have the seals already so that's why i am doing researches and i saw your video.
Thanks again and good luck in every project you do.
It makes the job less intimidating when you see it done. Thanks!
Fixed mine for the price of o-rings! Quick tip: break loose the bolts while it's still installed.
Good to see you back, You learn something every day I've never seen a Hydroboost taken apart before.. And a fishing Video would be good to see..
As a aircraft jet engine mechanic...this video is against all my work ethic core values, couldn't finish watching.

Does it still work? No leaks? Just wondering cuz your fingers seemed a lil grungy. :-/
Bad habits are hard to break, but you can step it up a little cleaning the parts, and the work bench, with some gloves on as you go!!...you already have the skills!!, and great video that really helped!!..much appreciated!!!
As a car mechanic I couldn't either. I cringe to think how many particles of grit went into the assembly.
Fuck I thought the same thing...
You had me at that beautiful intro where you throwing everything off that bench for the boost pump piece of crap ...it thanks
Anyone have a link for the reseal kit ?
Boost auto has a video on it an a link. Google boost auto parts I just ordered mine for 20 dollars for both seals
Nice intro! Haha and thanks for sharing i appreciate it
Thanks for the video ware the check valve located on the hydroboost

I’m not sure

When he put the pushrod in before putting it back together again I knew he didn’t have a clue to how these things function.
That's why it's been working ever since I did this video 🙄🤪

Lol well that'll show'em...... sometimes there is another way to skin that cat as they say..... ( what a weird saying now that I think about it... )

Go to boost auto they have a video an link. Google boost auto parts I got mine for 20 dollars for the 2 seals u need

Anyone have your brake pedal move when you turn the steering whee after doing this job?
I have a white come with a tiny hole in the middle.... where does that go
Yeah man, take us fishing. I just thought about that X Files freeze frame in one of your South Bend vids lol
Thanks John, glad to see you've stuck around. And that x files thing is one of my favorite things I've done in a video. Haha
Mine seems to be leaking inside of cab around the pushrod is their seal replacement for it in kit ? Thats just engine oil in it ?
No there's power steering fluid in it comes from the power steering pump
I really wonder if it functioned after you were finished.
Had 35k miles put on it no problem
That looks like my work bench.
Nasty mecanic
Just kidding this is actually kinda dope and yes on the fishing vids
Did someone say dope! 🤪 just kidding lol
Hey what is the little piece that looks like an ear plug but had a spring in it. It is k-3401 in seal kit .
There are extra pieces in the seal kits that aren't used in many applications.
Buddy, you will destroy your hands banging on the wrench handle like that. Hold part with one hand push wrench with other get a cheater bar and after a while maybe a bench vice.
Me too!
Where did you get the kit? I can't find one?
eBay I think
Go look for boost auto they have a video on it an link for the seals. Google boost auto parts I did an got both seals that u need for 20 dollars
mine was leaking from the back....where the pedal meets the booster, PUKING fluid.......
You really shouldn't use your hand as a hammer, it's bad on your nerves I think. I'm guilty of it occasionally too though.
Mine is leaking inside the fire wall how to replace that seal
