I have an old tire pump with a 1 3/8" cylinder. Can anyone point me to a supplier of replacement parts?
 
Don't ya just take it apart, and cut the leather off of an old show and wedge it between the piston flanges? Soak the leather in old motor oil after it's on.
 
I had my hopes up on that link, but my cylinder is 1 3/8”. That site is 1.25” if I recall correctly.

Bratton’s sells the hose and some clamps, but not the leather cup. I may end up having to find a shoe and do some trial and error work. Maybe Goodwill will have some cheap shoes I can buy and cut up. I was hoping for an easier solution.

Yes, that is what I found on Amazon. I don't know what happened to the link that I posted, but it went funky somehow.

That leather cup on Amazon has the correct outer diameter, but the hole in the middle is way too big.
 
If you have to make your own, go to a Hobby Lobby and buy some leather kit that would have the amount of soft leather to make a new one.
