try brake parts warehouse on sherman way a few blocks east of reseda blvd. if they can't help you call valley friction. valey friction is a bit pricey but the parts are top notch.
if you want to buy online go to kragen.

Napa and pretty much any parts store under the sun has calipers. If one caliper is bad, replace both on that axle, The other one isn't far behind. Have new hoses installed too, if they're the originals they are overdue for replacement.

I agree with Gadget and I also want to offer another reason why to change both.
With new parts installed the caliper will work differently then an older part.
On the rear it will not be as noticeable as if it where on the front, It can manifest itself when braking by pulling in the direction of the newer caliper.
