I'm trying to get the rearend put in my Dart, and I almost have it to where it is driveable, but I am missing the separator that goes between the rear shoes in the rear. It has notches at either end that fit into notches in the shoes, and has a spring on one end of it. It sits right above the axle. I have the 10" brakes, anyone know where to find one of these? I am just missing the drivers side. Thanks for any help!!!
 
What year is your rear end?

What is your brake shoe/drum width?

Do you have a picture of the other side along with a tape measure for reference?

If it helps I think what you are describing is the bar that applies the parking brake.

That is what I thought also.
Do they have those a Napa?
If they do, boy did I waiste a lot of time finding one. I never even thought about the fact they might carry it. Dang, I should have checked!!!
 
Thanks everyone!! Its a 69 8 3/4 with 10x1.75 brakes. I checked with a friend that works at NAPA, and he said he thinks they have it, he said they call it a "shoe link". I will go home and grab the one I have now, and I'll get a pic of it and post it on here, beside a tape measure. If I remember right, its about 6 inches long. I'd rather use OEM stuff, but, I guess whatever makes it work, I can always swap it out later for an original one.
 
I got mine at Carquest but they are a little different. Nothing a bench grinder and file couldn't fix though...
 
Im pretty sure they are different side to side so you might want to include which side you need it for. I will look at my stash and see if I have one since I never put the e-brakes back on anyways.
