The chances of finding parts or a rebuilt hydrovac are not that good. They aren't the type of item you can order from a general auto parts store.

They can be rebuilt though. Wheel cylinders can be sleeved also if necessary. A hemmimgs motor news off the magazine rack can be helpful for locating services.

Occasionally you will see a refurbished one float through eBay every now and then. You just have to keep an eye out.

Best option would be to mail that one off and have it gone through. At least you k ow it will fit when you get it back.
