Everything Chris said. I use McMaster Carr for all my fittings.
In addition you will find a couple more tidbits. You need to snip with tubing cutters, about 3/8 off each airline if going back with push ons. The problem is that the collet inside the airline leaves a dimple in the tubing which eventually leaks. Second, i replaced most of mine with compression fittings a long time ago, but I remember one was only available DOT version in plastic and push on.
You might try trimming the tubing and reinserting before replacing the fittings IF Newell left enough slack to do that.
