Thanks everyone. I got so many responses I can't even keep up with them. I'm sorry I couldn't respond until tonight. I am looking for some used ones and am trying to barter/trade plus cash for a complete 240 on Craigslist to use for parts. I've been driving the car as-is and so far-so good, it rides perfect. I fear as soon as the temp drops below zero it'll ride too stiff again. This is why I started this mess in the first place. Maybe I should just park it for the winter. As for the gland nuts; I saw the tool that IPS sells. It may work better than a pipe wrench.
BTW how did you guys remember I have a Vauxhall. I almost forgot it. It's under a cover in the back of my garage - another stalled project. The B21 motor's oil pan won't clear the steering center link and the crossmember it a little too tall.
