Brake pressure accumulator ("bomb")- interchange?

[Dave C]

I have a dead bomb in one of my cars... lasted all of 70 k miles and a
new one looks to be about $270.

Does anyone know if the newer style "bomb" (1989 onward) designed for
the O-ring seals can be installed in the earlier cars using crush
washer seals?

I remember  Russ Southerlin announced he would no longer be in the
bomb recharging business.  Too bad...  I'd happily pay for the
service.  It would be nice if someone would pick up where he left off.

Check out eBay #7523774576 ... it's a Hydraulic Accumulator Charger
Assembly,  used to recharge these things.  I suspect it's not much use
by itself but would be used by a shop like the one Russ would pay to
actually recharge the bomb along  with installing a valve.
