Boost Hydro What liquid do I put in a Hydro-Boost system?
I am waiting for parts for m hydro-boost cause its leakin into the cab but it is running low on fluids, what fluids do i put into it?
The Hydroboost is a hydraulic booster that replaces your factory vacuum booster. The booster is that big round thing that is bolted to the firewall on the driver's side of the engine compartment. When you press the brake pedal, the booster amplifies the pressure you generate and applies it to the master cylinder. As you know, the master cylinder pushes brake fluid to your front and rear brakes to stop your vehicle. Whereas the factory booster receives its operating power from the engine's intake vacuum, the Hydroboost relies on hydraulic pressure and flow to make it work. For the TJ, we reroute the output from the power steering pump and use it to power the Hydroboost and still handle the power steering demands of the vehicle. This increased demand means the pump gets upgraded too.
Therefore, the liquid would be power steering fluid.
