Need spring for rear parking brake strut

[Bock120]

I need the rectangle spring for the parking brake strut, the flat bar at the top of the brakes. Any ideas for a source, other than the junk yard. Ordered a drum brake kit and this is the only spring that didn't come with it.

This is one of them that is used on Mopars but I have no idea as to what you actual car you are working on to know if it might be correct.

Maybe it was just missing it in the kit. The kit I got at autozone had them in it.

Here is one that is for universal applications.

Sorry its for a 1963 Plymouth Valiant. The universal looks like it will work. Thanks.

BTW, most of those drum brake parts are fairly universal, the standard Bendix design. In decades past, auto parts had a display w/ all the common drum internals in bubble packs.
