2008 F350 Brake Question

Hello All,

I finally received my VIN and running it through a VIN decoder, it says that I have Hydraulic brakes. Now are these the Hydro-boost brakes or the vacuum brakes that are suppose to be on the JOB #2 orders or is this something totally different?

Re: 2008 F350 Brake Question

i think that is talking about neither i think that is just stating that the system is hydralic i dont think that refers to what the assist is..

now as to the wether it is hydro-boost or vaccume assist it is probably hydro-boost since the whats new for job#2 book said the vaccume assist would be late availability, and in years past that was around january( i had this discussion with my dealer on monday)though this year is sooo screwie anything in possible. :P
