I run dual pumps and it fits fine. You could even run triple pumps and it would fit.

Tim your dual pump is quite a bit different than the other 99% of the dual-CP3 kits though...

Im not sure if it would fit with "normal" dual CP3's and stock fan shroud.

I havent had time to swap it out. Hopefully tomorrow.

Tim,
Is the 07.5 a direct bolt in or are there other parts/alternations that need to be made? What made you decide to try it?

I hate my brakes (especially towing the truck and trailer), and am looking for alternatives. I have flushed ALL brake fluid, flush hydroboost, install ALL new brakes and hardware and new slides, etc. etc. etc and while it does stop OK, I think it could be much better. It never stopped "great" even when new.

I can vouch for the 07.5+ booster being much better than the older ones, I am happy I did the swap. It makes a potentially very dangerous truck on the street feel like any other high end sports car as far as brake feedback. Other than yellow stuff pads, my brakes are pretty stock too.

I run Jason Wehrli's bracket and wheel. I ended up sending the picture to Ben's phone instead of posting it here because it was easier. When I get some time later I'll convert it and post it up

Its a direct swap Chris. Also, we've been doing a ton of power steering pumps lately in relatively newer trucks, maybe yours is on its way out?

This is what I just installed. Machined up a 2 part housing and put the outlet at front of housing and then machined up an o-ring adapter and tigged it to a 304ss mandrel bend and then flipped the factory rad hose and it fits just fine. Only thing I had to do was bend the factory ac line out of the road a little. have not yet started the truck to check for leaks but im confident that it wont leak. Lapped every sealing face then put a bead of gasket maker so hopefully it holds and if not ill just make a gasket.

The lml housing has different mounting holes. I haven't taken the time to see if one could drill and tap new holes yet.
