Front bearing - keyed washer - castellated retainer

Hi all,
     Installed new rotors and bearings. Just after some advice. Wheres a good place to get the keyed washers that go between the bearing and the adjusting nut in the front hub. One of mine has broken the key part.
 Also with the castellated locking nut, the split pin will have to have both ends ( eye end and split end )  bent back towards the adjusting nut in order to snugly fit into the slots in the castellated nut properly to assist in locking. Not sure whether this is normal practice or whether I need a thicker keyed washer or more washers to pack it out so that the split pins fit more snugly when installed.
       Any thoughts ?

    Ok so I got got the full kit from Smacka and Im just posting this update as a way of plugging his business because he was great to deal with and got me the parts delivered at really late notice before this weekend when I thought there was absolutely no chance of getting them. Definitely a business worth supporting !

    I just noticed this post.
    Thanks for the positive plug. I work hard to make every experience a positive one.
     
    I've always said good service costs no more to provide and it's nice to recive proof of that.
