Top Ball Joint - Where to buy?

I'm getting my front wishbones powder coated so I've had to remove the threaded top ball joint and bushes from the wishbones.
It was a bit of a pain to undo the locking nut on the top ball joint - I cut it off so I could strip the wishbones down ready for shot blasting with a view to replacing them when I put it back together again. They were also a bit "weathered" so new ones won't hurt.

It's these ones:

What is the correct name for these ?

I thought they were "sierra threaded ball joints" but this search isn't really returning what I need.
Better still, where can I get a pair of them ?

Are there some longer ones which enable you to put a nut on the back to lock it off completely?

Any ideas?
