I am having a bit of a hard time tuning my rear brake on a '66 Rupp Continental.
I found the post... and it makes sense.

but I seem to also have an alignment issue. The backing plate is skewed a bit and cant seem to get it right as the origional brake spacer wes missing.
Then I found this:
My drum housing is missing the nut! Was this an addition to the brake to make it better?
Also found this:
This one from Allied Leisure shows a spacer.
No mater how I "tune" it it's barely working. Would either of these mods help me to align it better?
Thank you in advance,
Dave
