I looked here but didn't find: Is Dan (or anyone else) still selling Aquamaster Service Kits?
I've got three old Picos I've been diving for the past 20 years that are just now starting to free-flow. I need one, two, or three kits; whatever's available. Thanks.

You are probably aware that Bryan at VDH was having a lot of reproduction parts made and was offering service kits for most US Divers and other regulators. I think Rob at The Scuba Museum is now planning on offering service kits for many of the same regulators, but it may take a little while for that to happen. Bryan and Rob were very close friends, so it may take a little while...
Bryan's loss has been a real shock...

You could try Silent Explorers. They have them listed on their website. Last time I looked they were out of stock but on order.

I have a lot of parts for Aquamasters including hard to find gaskets. They are not packaged in "kits", so if interested make a specific list of what you need and I can give you a quote.

Thanks to all who contributed here. Over the last two days I searched ScubaMuseum for vintage bands and harnesses, tanks and valves, and the entire US Divers Aqualung section. Nary A USD harness to be seen. All the 1/2" NPT valves and manifolds are sold out. Still quite a few round regulators though; varying prices and condition. Fortunately, I found five regulator kits: two for the Aqua Master and three for the DA. I've got five regulators needing service: two of which I'm sending out. Now I've got the kits for two of the remaining three, so I'm good enough there. Tomorrow I'm receiving two more regulators; one freshly rebuilt and one used. I've got a kit for the used one, too. So there are still kits out there and God bless the folks making that possible. Now, I'm still looking for something like a USD "UDT" Harness, a T-knob DCARV in 1/2" NPT, and one more PST "winebottle" steel 72" tank. The quest goes on... Cheers!

It looks a lot like my old UDT harness. Mine doesn't have the four rivets around the hardware holes but other than that, the general layout of the straps and the band-slots seem about right. I don't know what the band diameter is but I think there's a good chance it's 6.75" so I bought it. If not, I can probably either resell or find a use for it. All good. Thank you very much! VBR, Pat
