Re: Hydrovac
I found during my restoration that there were 3 models for the G506 series as well with the same spotting differences as the CCKW.( do you know what they are ? )
I went with the 3rd series single diaphram model. Purchased from a vendor in Oregon USA
I'm certain you should be able to locate a suitable replacement "closer" to home
Hope this helps

Re: Hydrovac
My understanding of the series one is , a dual diaphram with the "tie rods" fastening thru a triangular plate on each end , second model again dual diaphram but with the tie rod going thru cast "J " hooks on either end, and the 3rd series single diaphram with wire/rod J hooks ( Avail thru most brake equipment jobbers )today.
Hope this helps

Re: Hydrovac
State side the re-build kits for dual diaphram Chevy or even CCKW Hydro-vac are non-existant.....But on your side of the pond I'm sure Ward, or Leegwater(sp) has them avail.
They need a vac. source to function.
