My hydroboost conversion has turned into a cluster f***....I bought the Cardone unit, MC, hoses, etc. per the Hydroboost conversion thread and sent all the parts and my car to Keith in Charlotte 3 hours away (the conversion was one of many things being done). Keith has tried to do the conversion, but after many attempts has concluded the new Cardone HB unit must be bad out of the box. Symptoms are the brake pedal sticks to the floor and doesn't return.
Of course, It appears I'm SOL as noone seems to carry this unit now. So, I have a car stuck 3 hours away with Keith and no replacement options in sight.
I've contacted Cardone about going through Advance where I bought the unit, but I'm afraid they're going to say ship it back through my local Advanced which means Kieth yanking the unit, shipping it to me, shipping it to Cardone, getting it back, shipping it to Keith, etc....That's just too much time to occupy Keith's garage with an undriveable car.
Does anyone have a HB unit for sale, or have a suggestion on the quickest way to proceed at this point? Are the rebuild kits any good for these units? Is there an off the shelf Astrovan unit that's mostly plug and play. I'm running out of options....
