I'm thinking its to keep the shoes/springs from putting too much pressure back against the wheel cylinder but I'm not sure. The shoe won't go back on this truck 'til I have one. Thanks!

The 'center bar' or 'parking brake strut' is not required on the front. It's purpose is to engage both of the shoes whn applying the parking brake
