Source for Harris rearset 8mm heim/'rose' joint (rear brake pushrod to pedal)?

First - you folks are awesome! The SP1 is coming along nicely with your help and I am getting much more familiar and confident with her.

The bike came with Harris rearsets and I am trying to dial them in, but the heim joint/female rod end on the rear brake master's pushrod is seized up solid. I can't shorten it to lower the brake pedal so am gonna use my spare MC. This means I need to find a source and I figure someone out there can save me a long search - I think it is 8mm.

Also - I'd like to know where to find the 'short' 205mm gearshift selector shaft (for forward/lower footpeg positions) since I only got the long 230mm one with the bike.

Thanks!
Chris

Holy crap! Great info, but it looks like I'll be measuring what I have before ordering due to option-rich sensory overload.
