Brake O-Ring Source
Is there anywhere local to get brake o-rings, or do I need to order from Van's or Aircraft Spruce???

O-rings are generic. I don't remember the number for the Cleveland brakes off the top of my head, but if you search the archives it's in there.
Some people (including me) think it is worthwhile to switch to Viton O-rings, which have a much wider temperature range,
You might also consider upgrading the brake fluid from MIL-5606. Again, lots of info in the archives to make an informed choice.
