ZYLtech (NOTE: I have not tested these myself. I have heard mixed results on whether they have the correctly sized nuts.):
For anyone looking for a 2mm lead screw or nut and Amazon is sold out, ZYLtech has them in stock with brass or Derlin (type of plastic) antibacklash nuts INCLUDED! Either one is $16.95 USD at time of writing. Choose the "0500mm" option and under "Custom Length:" enter 400mm (for Ender 5).
