Change power steering lines to a non-hydraboost, need vacuum source for brake booster,.

Not hard really.

What about the DC quad bracket? How do they make theirs fit without removing hydroboost? You fabbed your own right? I can't remember from your build log. If you were able to make adjustments that matched their bracket, then that could work for you.

I used the JZ designs Alt bracket. I know for sure that I would need to mod the brake fluid reservoir. I will look into the DC to see , I never thought about that

I guess it's like anything else, just need to research it, figure it out and do it. I would like to avoid making the switch.

It's a pricey bracket but worth it if I don't have to switch to vacuum assist. I am going to e mail them tomorrow
