Bolster seat actuator 272 sr1
 

Did anybody fix these recently? Need to replace them, called the company that bought Pl Porter and they want $400 a piece, could I rebuild them anywhere? Any ideas? I would really appreciate it.

A buddy of mine found them from a company that makes them for air planes contact 86242ls on board maybe he can give you the company info.

Hi Doug,

How are you doing? Thanks, I will contact him .

Ps:btw full cover fits the 272 pretty good! Thanks.

Would you post what you find out? I have one that is getting sloppy in my 242 that I need to fix before I sell it.
Thanks for any info

yes i will for sure, keep you posted,waiting for answer pm sent to other member.

Try this, http://www.avfab.com/repair.htm scroll down and click on seat hydraulic cyclinders, pl porter, here is the part number LL26000-12 hydrolok 1q86a originally made by porter co woodland hills ca 91367.

Same stuff used in airplane seats!!!!!

Thank you so much I will try that tomorrow,I appreciate your help.

Assuming it's not hydraulic, how about something like a linear actuator for a satellite dish, or something similar?

You can get them with quite a small overall length, and in 12 volt!

Hey, this is what i got so far , spoke to Chuck from this company you provided and it looks like the best solution so far.

"We overhaul those units for $225.00 each. Lead time is about 5 to 7 days.
Thanks."
