Default NOSE GEAR STRUT REQUIRED

Does anyone know where I can obtain a 5/32" diameter nose gear wire strut for a Rohm Air or Spring Air pneumatic retract sytem?
I inadvertantly cut the nose gear too short by approximately 1/4".
Please advise.
Thanks.

Yes I have. All they carry is Great Planes and Hobbico straight gears.
The one I have slips into the nose gear housing thru a thresded slees\ve and captivated with a "C"-Ring. It also has 4 coils.
