Hydroboost swap

Every one ton truck built by GM in the last half century has come with a hydroboost. When properly installed and bled they don't whine, pulse, or make any noises. Yours didn't do that from the factory either. They're pretty much bullet proof if you pay attention to things like leaks and deteriorating hydraulic lines. I've had no issues with any of mine.

I've had a junkyard Hydroboost, that I modified and installed my self, for 7 years now with no issues.
To bleed the system this is what I do.
Raise the front wheels of the ground, open up the reservoir. With the engine off, have somebody turn the wheels lock to lock 15-20 times while you watch the level. Add fluid as needed.
Start the car, repeat.
Set the car on the ground, repeat.
Use quality fluid like Royal Purple.
