Robert:
I just replaced one , best price I could find was Blaufergnugen $ 264.00
Make sure you get 2 copper washers for "banjo" bolt of high pressure line from hydraulic 
pump to bomb . Recommend you use opportunity to replace hydraulic fluid (pentosin) for 
brake booster and steering rack. During the "bomb" replacement, you will have to 
disconnect hose from reservoir to pressure accumulator (bomb) at this time you can drain 
the "pentosin" assuming it has not been replaced recently. 
Best luck OM.
