damper help

Thanks for the master cylinder info. The brakes look like uni-servo ("free backing") trailer brakes. You can buy the whole thing for about 40 bucks. May be cheaper than buying the wheel cylinders and shoes.
My question is does anyone have ideas for the damper replacement. A trip to the trailer store and I came up with nothing. They were all to big or small. Seems as many of these atwood actuators as they built you could find some info on them.
