IIRC, those look to be rear brake pin retainers, used at the pivot for the parking brake lever / arm, under the drum, at the actual brake shoe. Can be re-used in a pinch, but should be changed every rear shoe change.

I am referring to the flat circlip/alignment-shim-looking parts to the left of the cotter pins. It came with a box of late model old stock parts I just bought. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g255/mjcatlin/IMG00028-20110313-0919jpg.jpg Thanks. Mike Catlin Davis, Calif. |
