Rear drums minus ebrake hardware pic needed

The PO removed all the ebrake stuff from my 63.
And I'm looking for pics from anyone who's done it so I can verify what he did.
It seems right but I have the adjuster way out to even begin to get slight drag while adjusting brakes.
Thanks

Question Re: Rear drums minus ebrake hardware pic needed

Looks like he's got upper 2 springs reversed PLUS silver one is in wrong hole of shoe. BUT: Why not install the FEW, correct, missing parts and do it correctly? O'Reilly's should have all you need in one, neat, complete kit for each wheel--for approx. $20 per wheel.

I think most of the forum members will agree that good brakes are the cheapest insurance one can buy.........Here's hoping you find (and use) just what you need.

Because there's nothing left, zero zip nada, of the Ebrake system. No handle in cab, no cables, nothing. And I'm not too interested in finding and installing it all. It has new dual m/c, all new hardlines, new rubber hoses, new rear w/c's and rebuilt front w/c's
So I feel ok about it once I get rear hardware dialed in.
