Gordon, Norvil do a good "fork kit" that contains everything you need for a pair of forks (other than new stanchions if they are knackered). I have used these kits without any problems on a few sets of forks.
As you may know, Norvil are not the cheapest supplier but I think these kits are good value at £29.32 plus P&P.
