I found a junk TPN1110B power supply in my garage, and removed the two heavy
diode assemblies.  They are, indeed, 1N3492R diodes that are press-fitted
into a small aluminum plate marked 64B83562D01 and ink-stamped 1V80739B59.
Yes, the last digit is a "9" not a "7" on both of these diode assemblies.
No matter, they're both NLA from Motorola Parts.

Now, for the good news:  Mouser Electronics carries exact-replacement diodes
for the 1N3492R, made by NTE as part number NTE5963, for just $ 4.11 each.
The NTE diodes have a higher PRV rating of 400 volts.  An alternator repair
shop can replace the diodes in less than a minute, but the job can also be
done with a large bench vise and a couple of sockets.

Thanks for the reply/suggestion. A stud mount of greater current 
rating may be the way to go. I could just drill out of the existing 
mounting holes and use the stud mount and a nut/washer combo. 

However, after googling till my eyes fell asleep, I found a few 
sources on the web for the original diode - which turns out to be a 
1N3492R. So that takes care of the diodes -
