I am looking for backing plates to install the 2 3/4 wide brakes on the rear of my 84 1/2T 2wd. I am not sure what other years will fit. It looks like the drums, shoes, etc are the same back to 72. I believe this is the JB5 option on the newer trucks. It looks like these brakes were standard up until sometime in the late 70's.
