Love it when Ebay works and people are honest.
Used hydro assembly came today and I just put it in. Worked like a champ.
The only thing that hurts is the connector for the wiring harness. Man is that tight area for my fat hands.
I'm winging once again...

Guys, I heard that a rebuilt kit is out for the wing pistons that cost about $200 to fix them. I'm looking for a mechanic in Glendale/Burbank area who knows about the kits and can do the install.

never heard of any kit to repair the existing hydraulics, but speed gallery out here was able to re-bleed my system which has rendered my wing operational again. cost was labor and lucas stop leak fluid. it's a PITA to do, and i can't imagine any shop that would want to do this for folks. so, ya didn't hear it from me. i mention it as SG is local to you, i would guess.

Actually it was Dan from SG who mentioned that he was getting rebuild kits in for the rear wing.

What's in the rebuild kit?
Have a picture?
Is the common failure the block and seals or the motor?
In my case the motor is not working.

It's my understanding that the $200 rebuild kit fixes the leaking pistons which cost about $1,500 to replace
