The holders themselves we tend to have plenty of (70.6mm, particularly if you don't mind them starting life as 16mm holders)..the focus racks themselves, not so much but they are available new and are only held on by three screws. Make sure you have the alignment fixture to get them aligned right and fast...you can do it without it but it takes much longer to measure/move/measure/move...etc.
