Default Rear disc brake help please

Does anyone have a picture or an exploded diagram? I have these in pieces here and I'm trying to figure out how exactly they used to mount to a mustang.. I assume thebracket mounts onto the flange, with the caliper being on the BACK of the wheel? ANd does pad holding contraption thing mount in front of the bracket or behind it.. Lets say I'm looking at the brake, do I attach it to the outside or closer to the inside of the car? I would think outside, but it almost looks like the nuts will rub the rotor, but could be wrong.. And finally there are some U bolt braces or something, where and how do those attach!?

Thanks guys.. Pictures would be greatly appreciated if anyone has em! Thanks again.

Did you take both rear brakes off at the same time? If not go look at the other side.

Bought the brakes in pieces and trying to mount them onto a 67 with a little ingenuity, but want to make sure I Have everything the right way. Want to know which side the pad holder mounts to on the bracket, etc, etc.. Can't seem to find any pictures of stock brakes online.

Brakes themselves aren't bad at all, but trying to retro fit disc brakes that I've never seen before onto a car that isn't meant to have them isn't so much fun.. Nobody's taken a picture of their discs before??
