rear drum part q

[baj25]

Anyone know where I can get the pin/spring/retaining cup that sits between rear brake backplate and shoe? They seem to be available in kits but everyone I tried is out of stock. Maybe the same part is used on other vehicles? I'm missing one and brakes are awaiting this one damn part to complete rebuild. Could van be used without, front drums don't seem to use them? TIA, Bri

You need them. Similar were used on the likes of Morris Minors/ Austin Healeys etc.
