Dynamite?  ;o)
  
  OK, just kidding, but this is a common problem with all of the rim-blow  switches.  As far as I know, once the rubber gets brittle, that's  the end of the story for that switch.
  
  A replacement rim-blow switch is available at  http://www.shakerhood.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=29&osCsid=a1bfca565b6afb3295ed73133b8ecf49  (the Mopar one is the last one on the page) for the bargain price of  $125.
  
  Good luck!
