I replaced a hydra-vac power brake on a 98 chevy suburban, 7.4, 120,000 miles. After I put it in, everytime you turn the steering wheel the brakes lock up. If anyone has any ideas on what I did wrong or if the part is bad, I'd appreciate the feedback. Thanks!!

Are you sure you installed the hoses the right way?
If yes then If it's a rebiult, try a different one, And make sure the power steering is full and all air bled out!
