'73+ Caliper mounting hardware

[PA Dodger]

I did the '73+ disc brake swap on my '69 Dart. I'm down to mounting the calipers and brake hoses. My FSM covers the '69 Dart brakes so I can't tell the proper mounting method for these calipers. I'm thinking the big bracket first with the smaller tab on top? What do the included black rubber bands do? I'm guessing for vibration but where do they go?
Anyone have a diagram or pics?
Thanks
Dan

A pic of the hardware from Rock Auto shows the bands. Hopefully the pic loads.

They put those in the kits to hold the pads in place during assembly, if you can believe that.
Seriously, that's all they are for.

Wow,I would think if you need those to hold the pads in place you should probably leave the brake job to someone else.

That's what I thought the first time I saw them.
AND we are probably both right.
