Default FX3 actuator rebuild?

Hi folks

My 94 has FX3 and whilst refurb to front upper control arm I needed to remove the actuator...it fell apart because the plastic had gone brittle.
I have a little pile of bits left that are OK its only the outer plastic case thats gone...I have a rear actuator that was replaced 5 years ago ( not sure if its defective )but could I strip both and rebuild? Anyone have pictures or know how to?
Any suggestion where to get a reasonable replacement?

Thanks
