Wyell,
Did you ever get new mechs? You should be able to use those enclosures and plug an new DDS2 or 3 mech into it...
Over the years, I've replaced every failed DDS1 or 2 drive that fails with C1537A DDS3s with pretty good longevity...

Anyone interested in two old, non-working external tape drives ?
They could be refurbished or used for parts.
Both are external, SCSI-2 attached devices with HP model C1521B. In SYSGEN they are configured as HPC1521B. They both power on, are recognized on the system, and try to write tapes, but they both have unit failures. These two have both been on clean, uninterruptable power.
The front says HP6400 2000 DC.
Up until this week, they worked just fine.
