[TR] TR Servo Rebuilder - Diaphragm source

[stantr6 at comcast.net]

List, 
Does anyone out there know where I can purchase a diaphragm for a TR6 brake servo ? 

Years ago, I came across two old units, plus the one on my '74 TR6, that I was restoring. 
I opened all three, discovered my original was torn, apparently at manufacture. I replaced it with the better of the other two diaphragms, had best can powdercoated (kept mating surfaces bare), replaced the other components with new, from TRF, and reassembled. 

Now, I would like to assemble another, but rubber diaphragms seem to be a controlled substance. 
thanx, 
Stan

Thanks everyone for your help. It appears that Partco is kaput but 
Ted Schumacher contacted me to let me know he has rebuilt servos 
reasonably priced with exchange. I'm getting one from him. 

Cheers,
