Unhappy Hydraboost Leak

I am new to the 12 Valve, so help me out. I have a P/S fluid leak between the hydraboost, and the brake master cylinder. It's not bad right now, just annoying. My question is, are the hydraboost rebuildable? And if not, where is the best place to get one? I called Dodge and like to have fell over dead on their quote. The truck is a 97 12 valve, reg. cab auto, 4x4. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank's, Gary

I just replaced mine too, for the same reason, must be an epidemic. Lifetime warranty rebuild from Autozone was about $160. With theirs you have to swap some parts from old to new, no big deal.
