Taylorcraft Tail brace wire parts help

Top brace wire snapped in half, found the wire on univair but can’t seem to find the hardware to attach the tail brace wire clevis. See attached photo. Anyone have leads to these parts or a substitute?

Thanks for the help!

Will your IA let you substitute with Piper-style clevis and nipple? Those Taylorcraft ones appear rare as hens' teeth, even though i appreciate the design which accommodates a range of angles and eliminates bending stress on the nipple.
