Default Leaking Hydro Boost

The hydro boost on my 02 GT is leaking. The leak is near the firewall, but it's not coming from any of the lines. It's not brake fluid, it's the power steering fluid. Is there an easy fix or does the whole unit need to be replaced?

Default RE: Leaking Hydro Boost

is the power steering fluid coming out of the hydroboost unit? if so, it will need to be replaced unless there is some sort of rebuild kit. and yes, hydro boost runs off powersteering fluid compared to a brake booster which is off vaccum. they pretty much do the same thing though, i cant remember which is better, guessing hydroboost.
