Hydrovac
« on: February 26, 2019, 10:16:26 AM »
 Brakematerialsandparts.com in Fort Wayne Indiana got my hydrovac rebuilt. Sand blasted primed and painted. Guess it was pretty crusty inside, leathers grower to case, seals
 shot, piston froze. Would recoment them. These kind of old school shops are soon to be in the history books.

That looks really good!!
I rebuilt mine but won't really know if it works till I get the engine in and some vacuum on it.
Was a mess inside.

I just want to give a shout out to Ma Dueuce and echo his comment regarding Scott at Brake Materials and Parts in Ft Wayne IN. He has done two hydrovacs for me, also returned 6 drums so far and resleeved six cylinders. He does top quality work. I would recommend him as well.
