There are different diaphragms depending on distributor model and they may not be all that easy to get.

There are a number of variations of diaphragms that look very similar. It helps to pull the diaphragm so you can see the shape of the connecting rod.

Get a number off the diaphragm and distributor and do google and ebay searches. There are a number of people who specialize in selling old distributor parts.

Look on ebay for people who are selling old Dodge truck diaphragms. Then email them asking if they have a diaphragm for your distributor. Some of these people have the parts books and will help you out with information even if they do not have the correct diaphragm.

One problem with NOS diaphragms is that the diaphragm itself my have dried up and be brittle.
