If you can't rebuild it since it has a plastic base, why are rebuild kits available?

I've rebuilt three -- the plastic base has nothing to do with it. If it's cracked, then that is a problem -- what do you want to bet that either it's NOT cracked or that they did it? Paranoid? Maybe... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" />

Anyway, I'd go somewhere else or take Eddy's advice.
