As far as I know, it doesn't exist....

I rebuilt mine by buying a used one off a fellow Rennlister.
50.00 and I was back in business ----------- highly recommended!

A friend rebuilt his (spare) by opening the unit and carefully pressing in new bearings (std. size, readily available,cheap). Not a complex pump - could dig out details if needed.

I will be OK with the bearings , it's the other parts that bother me , the ones holding or limiting the flaps who pump air, sorry i don't know the name. they are completely worn or gone in mine (i should have send a pic).
The 3big are selling rebuilt pumps they should get these parts somewhere? Unless when they are in the condition of mine they don't rebuid them ?
: confused:

That pump is so simple , there are thre mobil parts in there , if the job is well done i don't know why the result would be unknown ?
about the part price of $150 us , i can tell you that when you count everything ,for me in canada , at the end it will be around $300us after shipping and the darn and silly custom fees !!! I ordered many parts lately from the US and let me tell you that when you can save a few bucks restoring a car like this it deserves consideration.
Thank's anyway for the advice
