Hi, I am looking for a good headlight Vac cylinder......Found out mine was cracked.
This is on a 66 toro. Top piece is good with unlatch mechanism.... Need the piston and housing
or complete unit.....

Well I got a hold of Ken Hitchcock.........He doesn't do much rebuilding anymore.....
But he said if I send him my parts he could fix me up.
These actuators are getting pretty scarce.........Probably need to think about electric ones
in the future.

Are electric ones available or is it a DIY sort of thing with junkyard parts?

If anybody has an old 66 unit that isn't working that they can part with, I'd like to see one and take it apart. I'm trying to source the diaphrams for the 67s and I think we can then repair those. 68-69 ar somewhat similar to those, but just a single unit for both lamps.

Electric ones are real. I received a set with my car when i bought it. Currently not in use but they are a thing
