McMaster Carr sells them. I've found that some fit off the shelf and others will need to be turned down to length very slightly.

I got some from Fountain a couple of years ago, shoulder bolts, bushings, washers, there's a combination of different size stuff as I recall. all fit perfect. I've got an invoice with the part #'s if you need them, I sent Gail an email then with pics of the stuff I needed. but there's a new crew in there now. I've been trying to get a fuel sending unit for a few weeks now and I still don't have anything that's even close to right. I finally gave up. I have a sender here from Fountain that's fits something though............
