Thought I'd post this here.
I looked everywhere and couldn't find a breakdown of the drum brakes on a 14 bolt 9.5" SF rear.

Took about a year to get my diff shipped over from Canada. Got a mate to ship it with a new Trutrac to suit as the G80 was damaged.
Had the housing, backing plates and mounting hardware sandblasted and epoxy coated. Had the drums blasted and painted with 'caliper and drum' high temp paint.
Made and welded in a stainless sight glass unit with drain and fill plug.

Finally got my 14bolt SF sandblasted and epoxy coated.







Had the drums blasted and then painted them with drum and caliper high temp paint.





Having a stainless plate made at present which will be welded into the cover. It'll contain fill, drain plugs along with a sight glass.







Problem is...I pulled the whole brake assembly apart to wire wheel and paint everything (it was pretty rusty) and can't remember how it all goes back together.
Anyone got any pic's?

 

 

Here's a quick 'how to' on putting together the drum brakes of a 14bolt semi floating rear axle assembly.

LEFT WHEEL!

 

 

 

Used a piece of folded cardboard to hold the hook up top make it easier to connect the spring.

 

Got the plate welded in and tested for leaks (using CRC....any pin hole in a weld...CRC will find it).



Now need to get the cover re-epoxied.

 

Very nice work. Your attention to detail is amazing. My ADD kicks in before I could ever get that meticulous on anything like that.

 

Lol! Thanks.
