I got my crush washers from Erik's military surplus.

Go to your local auto parts or hardware store and match them up. Sorry I don't know the size.

If you're in a pinch and the banjo washers are still in one piece, heat the washers until they turn a dull red. Drop them in cold water. They will be clean and soft again after this annealing process.

Funny, I plan to work on mine this Sunday! I'm in NOPO. What area of the People's Republic you in? I'll send a PM with my #.

This is covered in another thread. If you search for "brake lines" "1245"or similar you should find it. It is a thread started by peashooter. The following is part of my add to the thread: NAPA UP 1245 matches the inner banjo washer (33/64 ID) and UP 1246 matches the outer banjo washer (39/64 ID). NAPA stores will have them in stock, but it will be hit and miss. The main NAPA distribution center in NOPO has them. You can call them to be sure or check their web site.
