6bt/4bt swap HydroBoost setup

Posting this on behalf of a friend of mine, got me stumped as well...

When performing a Cummins swap on a CUCV, what did you all do with your hydroboost setup? Did it fit right in with the Dodge power steering pumps? I know that the 6bt was supposed to have the air pump right in front of the power steering pump if I am not mistaken, which obviously isn't involved with a hydroboost setup. Thanks!

the 6 bt has a vacuum pump there are 2 styles the rotary type, and the early model pod type. all one would have to do is change out the ps pump housing so you had the double return housing, and if you had a gen 2 truck you would also have to change the fitting for the high pressure hose in the back of the pump. the gen 2 models use a metric thread in them
