i need some help pls
i fitting a 2017 f250 sd hydro unit with MC to my 80. i made over lines from pump to run directly to hydro unit and then output of hydro unit goes to steering box ( top bolt) and low pressure of hydro and steering box (bolt to the side of the box) both T up and return to reservoir.
initially i started engine and kept pouring fluid in and kept turning steering wheel. it was HARd when i mashed brakes and the brake pedal rock hard. steering wheel kept pulsing when mashed brakes. figured i had line mixed up on hyro unit and swapped them. steering is super soft now. however brakes are ROCK hard. i equate it to the old vacuum system with engine off and trying to stop the vehicle.
what do i do? the power steering reservoir squirts fluid out every time i mash brakes. do i have air? is it a bad hyro unit? i have no air in brake lines and did not install a proportion valve. is the rod where the pedal hooks up too long? too short? i cut and welded my oem end onto the ford rod.
