Picked up some 25" Stainless Steel brake lines from Paragon Performance.
Got a 4 bolt flange from my man, Paul Grant.
New pinion flange bolts and hardened washers from Lucky8.
Got a couple leads on an air locker and HD front axles.
And some overtime to help pay for it all.

I just ordered the 25" brake lines because I'm not a ballet like Brett.

I'm going to go ahead and assume you meant "Baller".

well between yesterday and all day today. I installed my tactical rover bumper,tuff stuff 12.5 winch,oil cooler lines,and radiator then after that a test drive at 0200 on the river bottoms to find out that the 245/75/16 guard dog mts were rubbing in the back,so back to the house to take a nap and wake up today.
cut the rear fenders after finding a good dremel tool and cut disks.came out real good. I will have to post pics after work tonight when I get home to the pc. also went down to the bottoms after cut, no more rubbing, and finally got my rover stuck in 10 inches of goopy memphis mud on a small incline with no momentum. Hmmmmm winch test opportunity? heck yea! winch performed flawlessly for two pulls, out of the same hole. (had to try it a second time since it was a moral imperative, it went just as well as the first time) so i got to use new winch twice today. ill post pics and winch review as i wheel throughout the week testing new accessories. still have relocation cones to put on and sways to take off tomorrow will update with pics after completed!

Looking online the replacements would cost about $650 per seat.
Completely outrageous.
If any one knows of someone in the LA area that can reproduce them for a reasonable price, let me know.
Any other solutions are welcomed! I have contacted CarCannibal and am hopping that they will have some decent used ones.
Thanks
Wish you were closer, I have a nice used rear seat id sell you for 30 bucks.
