Question wanted: dead vacuum shutoff (OM617)

Does anybody have a vacuum shutoff valve from an OM617 (.952 if it matters...) that they don't want? I don't care if it holds vacuum at all, so long as the housing and hooked lever are intact -- I'm trying to convert it to cable actuation.

If you've got one, post up or PM me. I'll pay shipping, and even a few bucks for the part...

I'm pretty good looking myself, and I'll take the one in Junction. I'll PM you in a sec, Omegaman...

And I'd rather make it mechanical than electric, because we're going for extreme reliability in a 4x4. The less we need to do with electrics, the better.

why?
vacuum tubing is easier to maintain than a cable.
