Hi guys,

I am working on getting the car rolling and braking. I knew when I bought this Cuda that the rear end was torn up and that the brakes were not working. I have spent some time collecting parts hoping I could get in a few days work and put my accumulated parts on. I have found a few here on the swap meet and I thank you guys for helping me! I will need more!

So I got the wheels off and was not surprised to see NO brakes at all on the rear. The axle retainers were bent and it seems as if there's something that goes where the red arrow is pointing. Is this where the backing plate goes? I cannot remember. Something is not right.

I'm having my housing checked for straight and true, looking to buy axles and I have a nice 489 suregrip to go in.

And it looks like I will need complete brake assemblies along with axles. Any suggestions on a good source for these used parts? I haven't had much luck in the swap meet.

thanks !
