Re: K2500 Brake issues

This system is called "Hydro-Boost". It is feed from the power steering pump to the brake booster and then to the steering box. From my experience it is a reliable system unless the pump gets weak. In that case the steering would be effected also.

A pedal that goes to the floor on occasion would indicate a master cylinder bypassing internally. Other issues could be air in the system.
