Help with installing power steering pump

welcome to hydroboost.
do this before replacing pump:
with truck off, push brake pedal to floor hard 3 times. then restart truck with foot on brake pedal--pedal should kick twice then regain stiffness and push your foot back up.
If this doesn't happen, brake booster is faulty.
