Hydraulic booster swap

[MWoodland at Dentsply.com]

I think he means the Hydraulic Booster.
Mine is definitely iron.
I didn't check the newer one, but it seemed remarkably free of corrosion.
The down side of mine, is that its leaking.
Are rebuild kits available for the booster units?
I had heard in the past that they are available only as new.
Any BTDTs?
Regards,
Mark

I have yet to see an aluminum one in the 40 bombs I have had in the past 6
months.  They have all been steel.

      If you have the cast iron unit, I'd keep that, they seem to be much
      heartier than the later aluminum units.  They will interchange with
      no
      problems IME.

      You know, you come from nothing - you're going back to nothing.
      What have you lost? Nothing!

            Has anyone tried replacing a 5KTQ hydraulic brake booster with
            one
            from a '88-'89 100 (5K body)?



            couldn't hurt to upgrade to the new design.
