rear calipers on my 89

so last week one of my rear calipers on my 89 started to act up, no big deal. but when i went to get a new one i was told that i can no longer get them, that they were discontinued. i went to every parts store in my town also to the gm dealer. i even travled a to couple of other larger communities and still got the same answer. so i think i may be screwed. i'm not sure what i'm going to do now. any one have any ideas?

I doubt that the so-called 1LE rear calipers or performance package (alum, single piston) have been discontinued. These were standard J65 rear disc brakes on all 89-92 cars. At any rate, check the following site, which shows them:
