Rear brake caliper rebuild: replace seal on 2003 620

[808Ducati]

Rear brake locking up, took apart the caliper to clean it up but the pistons are not moving freely.  I want to rebuild the caliper but I cannot find where to purchase the seals; anyone know?  Or do people just pop out the pistons and clean everything up without replacing the seals?  Or buy a new caliper?  Thanks

 I think that the usual approach is to replace the caliper as the consequences of failure are rather dire. It is an easy enough job if you can find the parts, butt with liability being what it is these days, whatcha' gonna do?

edit: looking at google, there appear to be many kits available!

Any update?
I just discovered one of my pistons stuck, rear caliper 05 620.

Rear calipers are really cheap.

Get a gold one to match goldline front calipers.

Thanks Suzyj, I ended up ordering used from a popular auction site plus pads. Kinda need the assured quick delivery as much as anything, leaving in 10 days for about 4K mile trip.
Goldline front calipers - you are funny, I see what you did there.

minor update - received used caliper  $65 shipped (gold), looks pristine. Pads I ordered didn't arrive yet (that's bad!)
Used Caliper came with pads installed (that's good!).
My little power bleeder thingy failed (won't suck - that's bad).
Rear brake just as easy to bleed without pump (that's good).

I did get the stuck piston on my old caliper to pop back in, I'll double check to see if it still leaks, when I get around to it.
