I certainly have pistons, but it sounds like you need a complete 
brake cyl assembly. I have good used ones, but I don't think new 
ones are hard to find. I think yours is a late model, so the bore is 
22.2mm (7/8") so make sure that you can see a molded in "22" in 
the casting if you find a NOS ATe one.
