Re: Rear drum spring hardware
It looked like the adjuster spring was larger on the front drums but it looks the same size as the one in your pic.There was a right and a left spring I got that right so as it clears the screw part. There was the 2 springs that hold the shoes on one was longer than the other I put the longer green one on the side without the adjuster it seemed to make sence. As it is it seems right to me.

Re: Rear drum spring hardware
just make sure the spring that goes over the star wheel does not touch the wheel,,,,,,they are easy to mix up,,,,

Re: Rear drum spring hardware
there are a lot of different kits,,,,,some are springs, some are the star wheel and self adjusting parts,,,,,,the front shoes are 1/2" wider than the rears,,,so they take longer hold down spring pins,,,,,but as long as you had to pull a little bit to get the springs to stretch and the hold down springs keep the locking disks from turning, things should be OK.....
