Before ordering a kit you’ll probably need the number stamped into the mount flange in order to be sure it’s the correct kit.

For assembling the vacuum side, get 2 long screws (4" or so) with the same thread, put these through the top and diaphragm, and into the pump housing, then use a vice to squish the spring.
The same trick with long bolts works when fitting the front spring and locating the inside mounts of the lower wishbone. (But with a floor jack of course, not the bench vice).
