Yeah the clip is a PITA. I actually had a harder time getting it back on than off. I also got rid of the message center thing.

Also did some spirited turning and braking. No issue at all. Smooth....

I finally really got to drive my truck today for about 450 miles. It takes so little pedal to stop, I think I would flip the truck over itself before it effected the steering. No problems here by t'ing into the return line.

Had Chevracer look up the PNs to get a round about price on all the Hydroboost stuff new.


15295853 - Hose 72.53
15804952 - Hose 73.06
15295840 - Hose 70.35
15734409 - Brake Pedal 35.99
15234828 - Power Steering Pump 176.59
18047512 - brake master cylinder, includes reservoir 205.06
15854060 - booster 399.05

So buying all new stuff from the stealership, your lookin at ~$1000.
