as yall know, i have that explorer on 38s, well it seems that either the booster or master cylider is going, as the pedal drops to the floor somewhat if pressure is applied(over normal pedal pressure), and ive made sure that there is no air in the lines and all of the lines are in good shape, i even checked the RABS module that is known to act up once in a while, some valve body that sticks)
so since im wanting to go larger tires and axles, rockwell/ deuce and a half axles, since im gonna make this a mud truck, and sooner or later a 302 swap, im wanting to put in a larger booster and master cylinder for the rockwell axles, so ive been told on other boards, that i need to go to a Ford F250 or F350 booster and master cylider and that should give ample power to the axle
but my main question is will the F150,250, or F350 bolt right up to the bolt holes of the explorer
ive researched it thru my old work, advance auto, and the 92 explorer has a part number of 503132(Cardone product), and then i checked the part numbers on the (also 1992)F150,250 and 350, and with either a inline 6 or 351, it had a part number of 504210,so i see a cross compatibility of the same part number, and that is for a vehicle under 7k GVW, and for the over 7K class, it was a part number of 504400, so that says that there is a difference between the two, for the hell of it, i checked all the E-line of vanes, since i figured that they would have a smaller engine compartment than the F-series, and no matter the size of the engine or size of the van, it was the part number of 504402,so that shows crosscompatability too
and if the bolt holes work too, would a hydroboost or hydrovac work with my 4.0 engine, and whats the real main difference between hydroboost(which im familiar with on chevy's) and the hydrovac, is it more just of a vaccuum from the manifold for the hydrovac, and the hydroboost is a tie-in into the P/S pump like the chevy's are?
and as for the reason for going rockwells is that i fear that the 38+ tire is going to continually break a stock D44 axle, and the price of a D60 around here is 1500 each axle, but yet if ya look around, you can get a set of rockwell(F&R) for $1k rebuilt, but thats information will really not need to factor into my above question)
