Question Need sources for parts

Finally got my rearend back from the shop today after dropping it off back in May with the words that still haunt me: "No hurry -- whenever you get around to it." Had most of the work done last fall when divorce proceedings interfered with my free time and I packed it up for the winter. It's the stock 12-bolt out of my '72 but about the only thing that remains original are the housing, backing plates, ring & pinion, and axles. Everything else is brand new or rebuilt, including an Eaton posi and entirely new brakes. I had the gentleman at the shop put the finishing touches on it with getting it shimmed properly, etc. so that I could get on with the project again after letting it sit for nearly nine months.

Anyway, now that I'm getting ready to start putting things back together I find myself in need of the bump stops that go on the rear axle. (This is a leaf-spring rear.) Don't see them listed or pictured in the latest LMC catalog or elsewhere online, just listings for coil spring rears and I don't know if they're the same or not. Any help?

I'm also looking for the most economical stainless full brake line kit. Suggestions? Obviously I can do the research myself but if someone has already done it I'd love to benefit from your experience. :-)

Thanks a ton,
Brent
