I have an older (1970's) Vintage Wing and would like to replace the bladder. It's has the typical horseshoe shape, zippered opening, etc. It has a welded seam elbow and then a standard corrugated hose attached. I can retrofit various alternatives. Without getting into specifics of lift, size, dump openings, etc...Does anyone know where I can purchase replacement bladders?
 
Are we talking ATpac? Dacor, Seaquest? new bladders for vintage wings do turn up from time to time - check the vintage forum here as well as Vintage Double Hose

The biggest issues will be the location of the elbow - in the center or toward the left side - and the location of the OPV if one is installed. If your wing does not have an OPV, you can just cut a hole to accommodate it in the outer cover.

Otherwise a bladder for a modern wing of comparabel size and shape should work.
 
It's a Dacor. Elbow/hose location is just left of center (left Shoulder) and OPV is lower left hand. Where do I get just the bladder of comparable size/shape. Online resource?
