Ugh..$200 and $185 (used) from “that” outfit In Missouri
Commercial ones can be 80 to $200 depending on brand. You get what you pay for. You aren't driving a 1990s Ford ranger. It is a truck built for the military and only them with no civilian equal so parts aren't that common or they will be a little more.

i would imagine the principles are essentially the same…

There is one on the auction site with make an offer.

However, the video seems to show that it could be easily rebuilt with a few O-rings...seems to be the cheaper way!

Good luck! :-D

if anyone cares... for future reference

-Harberfreight vs others

-Oring and chemical compatibility

-How to measure Orings
.
Almost makes me "special" to have a real o-ring gauge I guess.
One of those things that sits there in my toolbox most of the time - but it sure is nice when you "just need to know" .

Of course that and a nickle won't buy you a cup of coffee. ;-)
