New England owners/ACD question

After nearly a year and a half I've decided to seriously look into rebuilding my ACD pump. I'd bring it to ACD-Tuning if they weren't so far away, considering my skills in mechanics and in the rebuild itself do not exist, apart from a headlight/wiper blade change. To make a long story short, I'm asking the community if they are familiar with any locations in the New England area that offer the same service. Any info would be super awesome. Thank you.

if it aint broke why fix it?

wash it thoroughly, let dry, either spray a protective coating on it, or spray wd40 on it.

Special equipment required to bleed the pump, not remove or install. Also, doesn't have to be dealer-specific, just application-specific. Check out youtube evo acd bleeding
