Well, I don't have a tractor yet, but I figgured the next best thing is a classic truck, right? So, I am rebuilding the brake components on a 1952 IH L-162 (GVW 16,000) - truck is parked at a friend's house 300 miles away. Parts haven't been a problem, until I got to the hydrovac booster unit. Automotive parts shops haven't had anything, local International dealer pretty much laughed at me. There's no tag on the unit, but a local (boise, ID) shop identified it as a '6 3/4" Series 3' Hydrovac. Any ideas where to find a rebuild kit for this? I don't like the idea of spending $300 for a rebuilt unit, when I can do the labor myself. (Besides spending half the price of the truck on a single part!) So...Any ideas where to find the rubber / leather parts to bring this back to usin' condition? Thanks, Nathaniel (e-mail is open)
