I just started into the rebuild process for the Girling servo from my '66
BJ8. It's a bit of a chore to disassemble, even if everything still moves.
The leather seal is available but I haven't found anywhere discussing how
to replace it. The foam backup ring needs to be an open cell foam, some of
the older kits used a closed cell that would cause things to lock up.
The cans can get rusty inside in the low spot if they've been sitting,
right in the seal area.
In short, originals can be a frustrating gamble to attempt to rebuild.
Tom's Import Toys sells a kit that retrofits a different servo, I've heard
good things about it.
