Can anyone point me in the right direction on where I can find a complete, fully assembled pair of 9 inch drum brakes (with internals) for a Fox 8.8 4 lug rear? I always thought I was pretty good with finding things online, but this crap has stumped me for a good week or so.

I found replacement drums and shoes alone but can't find anything else that makes up the drum brake.

Even if you know where I can get JUST the backing plate, with all the springs, cylinder, screws, levers, etc... that would truly be a big help.

I don't plan on changing the rear to disc brakes or going to 5 lug and I just want to make sure my whole braking system is fresh and in working order. Thanks.

an adjusterkit and hardware kit will get ya all the pins, springs and levers

Check a salvage yard for the backing plates. Your local autoparts store should have the shoes, wheel cylinders, and hardware (springs etc.).

Thanks. I think I've found everything EXCEPT for the backing plates. It's like looking for a needle in a hay stack

I'll keep searching so that I don't have to go to a junk yard...I don't even know if they exist in my area.

If anyone has any ideas where I can can get a new backing plate, let me know. Thanks again!
