    Rear brake pics,diagram,ipl needed,62 Bird

    I'm redoing the rear brakes and made the mistake of not doing one side at a time and not taking pics and not having a shop manual,ok 3 mistakes.I have a shop manual on the way but was hoping someone on here would have pics or a diagram of the rear brakes so I can finish this in the next couple days,I know where the springs and adj. go but there's a few small details I'm stuck on,I want to get it right the first time,brakes are important,needless to say.

    Please note that the LONGER brake shoe (secondary lining) always goes toward the rear of the car. This is important. Secondary linings are usually a different composition and size from Primary linings.
    Here are Squarebird brakes:


    Here are your 1962 brakes:


    Hope this helps, and I hope your manuals come soon. - Dave
