I don't know MoparMall but there was a man on the '62-'65 vendor list that did a good job rebuilding these. He is listed in the "Cooling System & Heating & Air Conditioning" section; you will see "Mopar Vacuum Switch Restoration Contact: Anthony Powell."

I don't know if he retired though. It is worth a try to contact him. Let us know the result please.

I have a vague memory that Joe Suchy sometimes has rebuilt units available. Give him a call.

Lastly, I put online a long time ago a "how to" article to try rebuilding yours.

And here is a report from a guy who rebuilt his using that guide:
