[QUOTE="Jroc, post: 13927281, member: 51847"] Can you not just use a 96-04 Mustangs factory hydroboost unit, or convert to a hydroboost setup in a vehicle that comes factory with vacuum assisted booster? I put a hydroboost unit from a wrecked 02 PSD in my L and it was very easy, and cheap to do, and works great with a much improved petal over the old vacuum assisted booster. I would think in something smaller like a Ranger you could use a Mustangs hydroboost until, and it would be plenty good for a vehicle it's size. Hell a 96-04 Mustangs hydroboost unit might even be plenty for a 1/2 ton truck. I know that a lot of these newer vehicles use some electric steering or whatnot, and I'm not a expert on how they work, but am I correct in assuming that they do not have powersteering pumps to power a hydroboost unit? I think that a Ecoboost motor in a Ranger FX4 would make for a badass little compact truck if you could do it for a reasonable price. That would make for one little torque, strong pulling SOB that would likely get better MPG's than a Rangers factory v6 motors. [/QUOTE]
