A little help with spring parts?

Picked up a set of 4" leafs for the front of the K5. They are missing the "sleeves" that go inside the bushing. Where would I find these, and what size do I need? Or, can I reuse the sleeves off of my stock springs?

Also, I need new centering pins. Are these a standard size? If not, what size do I get?
 
You should be able to get the bushing sleeves at a spring shop, or by buying new bushings...they don't cost that much. Plus it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to replace them.

The center pins can be made with a grade 8 bolt. Grind the head round so it will it in the axle, insert into springs and cut the rest off.
