Does anyone have a link to some nice caps that won't break the budget? I see them posted on Ebay for 50 or 60 bucks a pair. Thanks!

60 bucks for a pair would be cheap. Go to Digikey and do a filter search 50-51mm 63-100v. Cheapest I see is $31, thats a quality kemet 13000uf 63v with screw terminals. There's other choices around that price. I'm not even sure that's a good idea. Patfont's idea is quite possibly the best, considering the prestige of a 2275.
In stock at Michael Percy Audio-best caps for the 2275, check for clearance they are 100mm height (same as stock 50mm diam.) pretty sure I used them in a rebuild.
Also solder lug which makes it easy.

I think 100mm will go too high to set the top cover because the hole won't allow 50mm to go through the hole so it will sit at the edge. I have been using shorter 50mm caps but they are getting very hard to find as well. I used 100mm in the 1300DC but that's a much bigger unit.

If you want to convert to screw terminal these are really nice:
I like these and the type ALC ones too.
It's been a while since I did my first rebuild but my 2275 came out great. I built this little bar out of copper antenna grounding wire and lugs: https://audiokarma.org/forums/threads/2275-rebuild-project.735510/post-10071750
