I believe those are difficult to come by as NOS. You might have to buy used cylinders to pull the Pistons.

White Post just got back to me, looks like they won't do sleeving only as they need the piston / seals to do a pressure test (which they already have?) When I told them I already had my rebuild kits they requested I send them as well as the cylinders. But it appears they do not give you any credit by supplying the kits as the rear wheel cylinders were still $85, what they charged you for full rebuild with them supplying the new parts. That's kind of screwed up. Looks like I will be going with Apple, maybe Karp's for sleeving only when the time comes. They must be a bit more confident in their process since they will do sleeving only. Whether they do a pressure test by some means, who knows?

Prices ( I supply the rebuild kits)

Rear 13/16" Brake wheel cylinders $85 ea.
3/4 inch single stage Brake Master Cylinder $225
5/8 Clutch Master cylinder $225

I didn't know there was an inner piston and an outer piston. They look the same to me, and now I can't tell them apart. Will this be an issue ?

Look at the drilling for the crossover lines. It will make sense

The Cylinder with the bleeder screw is the inner, outer has no bleeder.
