My thanks to Bob and Arlin and everyone else who responded with Bill Finks 
phone number.  I never knew Bill was the guy in charge of  Isis out on the Left 
Coast.

Bill does still have Armstrong levers at $75 each, a rare bargain indeed, and a 
fresh pair are winging their way to me as fast as UPS can pull themselves back 
together.

I will also consider the recommendations to replace the leaf springs, but that 
sounds like a genuine pain in the patoot since the original nuts and bolts 
haven't been turned in several decades.  Think I'll wait and see how the new 
shocks do first.
