7.3 YES-YES
Electric Vacuum Pump Kit Instructions:
Seeking the ultimate brake enhancement for your 1989-1997 Ford F-Series Truck? Look no further than OBS Solutions Hydroboost Kit - the definitive solution to elevate your driving experience.
No more trying to find old, used or obsolete F-Superduty parts!
What's Hydroboost?
OBS Solutions Hydroboost Kit replaces your stock vacuum assist brake booster with a hydroboost unit that utilizes power steering hydraulic pressure instead of engine vacuum for braking assist. This provides a tremendous increase in braking power, requires less input from the driver and a much better driving experience, especially when towing.
This kit seamlessly integrate with your stock master cylinder and power steering pump. It also allows the use of your original stock brake pedal and firewall mounting provisions. Literally “Bolt On”.
Those equipped with Super Duty axles boasting rear disk brakes, we recommend the application of a 2005 6.0 master cylinder for optimal performance.
Kit Options:
1987–1997 Ford Truck Hydroboost Braking System Kit
What’s Included in Each Kit:
(2) pressure lines/return line with clamps (UNLESS YOU SELECT ENGINE SWAP)
Fittings compatible with your stock power steering pump and steering box/super duty power steering pump
Brass Y-fitting for clean return line integration (UNLESS YOU SELECT YES, ADD SUPERDUTY POWER STEERING PUMP)
Upgrade Options Available:
🔧 Super Duty Power Steering Pump Upgrade
Swap in a Super Duty power steering pump with an additional return port—eliminating the need for the brass Y-fitting. Ideal for clean installs and increased fluid capacity.

Of all the upgrades I’ve made this one is my favorite. The braking feel is night and day difference, it’s worth every penny. I recommend installing the super duty P/S pump at the same time you do the vacuum pump delete kit. It makes it slot easier to install the P/S pump with the fan shroud removed. The delete kit doesn’t include two 18 gauge wires or splice connectors which you will need to wire the new vacuum pumps. For the price I think the kid should include these.
1995 7.3
I had the hydro boost brake system installed by my trustee mechanic on a 1989 F350 Dually two wheel drive. I have struggled to get the stock brakes to perform like I wanted even after replacing everything. I’ve drove about a hundred miles with the hydro boost system and it’s exactly what I was hoping it would be. The brake system performs like a 20 year newer vehicle. My mechanic was very impressed and said he was definitely going to install the system in one of his projects.
Thank You
My OBS is a 521 gasser running on 40’s,I installed the hydro boost and the upgraded Saginaw pump. Install took less than 3 hours. Wish I would have done this years ago. Kit was plug and play, everything lined up and hoses fit perfectly.
Extremely impressed with the performance of this Hydro boost swap for my 1996 Ford bronco. I paired this with a don’t tell my wife RACING steering pump. I run a pretty fast pace out there in the trails, open desert and being able to stop safely is a huge improvement to the handling of this machine. Highly recommend doing this kit. The ease of installation is actually eye-opening. Customer service is like no other, definitely looking forward to doing business in the future.
Man it’s the little things that make a big difference. Never liked when I opened my hood and my eyes would go straight for the papier-mâché shims. Now with these things in there the engine bay looks so much better. Simple install and quality as usual. Very Happy
Absolutely love these things. I installed them like a year ago and never posted a review. Super easy to install and look sharpe as hell (even better at night). These guys do it right.
Just installed complete led upgrade....looks great....they actually dim out which surprised me...good products from obs solutions my go too for tasteful upgrades

The light went in no problem and look great at night, the only down side was I ordered the wrong one, which is on me because I didn't realize I had the metal dome light. Only recommend to double check the kit you order. Sorry for the dirty dash, its a work in progress.
