The 24046 seems to still be available from several places but you are right in that the prices are all over the place. Cheapest I saw was $22 from RyderFleet and all the way to $50. According to this description from the C-H catalog the PVC equivalent is 24077. Possibly those are in better supply.
If you had a 56 there would be other options because the physical form could be different. With the 55 and the rigid limit switch buss bar connection you are limited in physical style.
The only concern I would have using your old is if they were sitting a long time in a damp environment. I believe it was Randy who had one of the old solenoids on a new acquisition suddenly act up and start the TL moving on its own. When he cut the solenoid apart to see what happened he found a lot of rust inside.
