My local Autozone sold an alignment kit. Came with a bunch of different sizes, worked out great. As for the TOB I would just get a 01-02 Slave. That way you have a new slave with a new TOB. And the piolet bushing/bearing is up to you, the bushing is what most people use since the bearing can come appart. I would just get either one at your parts store.

How much would you pay for one? I just got a lathe & a mill, and this type of tool seems like a nice project to build, as I've had this complaint before also (I hate those stupid plastic tools, they don't work anywhere nearly as well as a real input shaft). Not too complicated (other than indexing the angles for the spline cuts), and it could probably be made from aluminum quickly and inexpensively (no need for a 'ton' of durability for a hobbyist tool).
I'm just curious, I may build one in the future just to see if I can.
