You may still be able to get diodes from NAPA Auto parts - they used to have them for alternators - don't know if they still do.
I had a 110V small MIG machine that habitually cooked the diodes - I ended up replacing them with some larger ones that I bought at NAPA - this was probably 8 years ago, though.
Just a though - hope it helps.
