The hydro-boost was replaced yesterday morning and since then I've driven over 500 miles with no problems. Next week should tell the tale if it is fixed. Leave Mon. morning on a 700 mile one way run, plus some running around when I'm up there, then the trip back. If it doesn't blow, I believe I can assume that the hydro-boost was the problem and that the problem is fixed. Should be back next Wed. or Thur.

I got back this afternoon and have put about 1800 miles on my truck since I had the hydro-boost replaced last Friday. Looks like that was the problem, I believe it would have kicked back on this trip if it wasn't. Looks like I spent about $911 more than I needed to get it fixed. Oh well, I have a complete new steering and brake setup on my truck. Hopefully I won't have any more problems now.

Good to hear that. Like I wrote earlier, my Dad had the same issue with his Super Duty.
