Fox Rear Brakes - where in the holly heck do these go?

hmmm, ok, that's kind of what I figured it was for the parking brake part... but on the LMR video... they just show it hooking in. and not putting any c-washer...
which is odd... it's been a few years since I ripped this all apart... I have to go find where I put those parking brake brackets, I know I blasted them and painted them up... I was just trying to get my game plan and everything ready so when I go out I can slap this stuff on... I'm kind of wondering if it's even used on my year fox, maybe it's just in the kit for early years... but at least I know what to look for... I'll go dig those brackets out and see if there needed or not.. thanks.

Even the shop manual doesn't even show it... and this is like the only picture they really show of the rear drum... was disappointed in that...

I got the one side on yesterday.... but as usual I ran into issues... can't put the new parking brake cables in with out removing driveshaft, so I had to take that back off...(seems like every time I go to put stuff back on, I have to take 10 steps back and take stuff off again) then I finally got the drivers side all done... (Now I remember how much I hate drum brakes...) well then I put the new drum on that I painted all up with caliber paint along with the calibers the other day... and lets say the paint don't look so good any more... it didn't seem to me like the drum was going all the way on to me... so I too the old pony rim and bolted it up... which that seems to seat it... but now I can't get the damn drum off... looks like when I painted the rear end all up, it didn't like the paint around where the center of the drum goes on... So now I have to fight with getting that back off today.. then I can do the other side...

oh... sorry, but any way... yeah, my year '90 is like that video, it doesn't use those c-washers... the parking brake doesn't have a pin, it has kind of like a hook that goes in the shoe.. so I guess they include it in the kit, I'm assuming the older models must use them.

I've had to use a large pulley puller to get drums off before. At one point I thought I was going to break the drum in half before it finally popped off. Under load I tapped it with a hammer and it came off. I hate drum brakes.

unfortunately Advance or autozone don't have a puller big enough for loan.. I should of sanded off the paint around that hub mounting point... urrggg going to go out with propane torch in a bit and heat up the drum, hoping it will expanded enough...
