The electrolytic caps I bought from a dealer on eBay that specialized in the kits for the FT series radios.

The particular resistor you mentioned, I purchased from Mouser Electronics, along with the mica capacitors.

The crystals I bought mine from this eBay dealer. They are Yaesu crystals so I took a leap of faith that they were ok to get.

No trimmer capacitors yet, so I’ll have to wait until I get to a point to where I need them first.

As for contact cleaner. Ok, that just stinks, BUT. I also get that the US is a bit more lax when it comes to these things too.

Can you buy a product called TARN-X in Peru??? ?This works great on wafer switch contacts that you can see and get to. As for potentiometers and cleaners….it may be cheaper for you to just buy a replacement pot and even that may seem problematic.?
