Many of the parts for the NBD's are not in stock because a new series of drills came out in Feb of last year and they are different. I have not had a chance to look at the new drills to figure out how to modify them but hopefully before the 2011 season there can be an updated white paper.

If you are looking for parts, perhaps the best thing to do would be to buy referb drills without batteries for parts. For example this... http://www.amazon.com/DC940-Dewalt-B...3871506&sr=8-1


EDIT: The drill above is the DC940 the drill in the NBD paper is the DC980 and they are slightly different but should be close enough that the paper should apply. That being said I have no experience with the DC940 so try it at your own risk.
