I got my hardware at the local ACE Hardware.
Springs are the ones that came with the header.

thanks Jim.
I need new springs too. Because the genius who cut &welded the cat munched the springs down too far,they are now perma compressed.

Yeah, McMaster is great for mass quantities, but "Ace is the place" for just a few pieces.
I could look at the McMaster site for hours!
