Edwards will sell them to you - quite inexpensive and quick shipping. Probably Shires too.

I'm a dummy about trombone rotors, and when one of mine started making a louder sound on the valve throw bumpers, I assumed they'd dried out or something. A buddy who knows better told me to oil the valve spindle (axle), and that solved it. Valves on trombones are silly, and I'm a dummy.
