12 bolt backing plate
Can you guys help me? I have been searching for a few days now trying to get a parts vendor for a new passenger side rear backing plate for a 12 bolt gm truck rear axle. I can't seem to be able to purchase one anywhere. Any help?

Re: 12 bolt backing plate
should be the same as 10 bolt other than shoe size and width . also parking brake cable style .
i know guys swap them a lot from 1 axle to other . my 2wd i did . the 12 bolt rear has the wide brake backing plate's on it for 1/2 ton . whats wrong with yours ?

Re: 12 bolt backing plate
If they just rusted wore out on the wear points. (slide area) sand blast them weld them back up. Old Truck fix backers. I bleave that no one makes them yet.

no they rusted out and got holes in them, need replacment ones. Which BTW big shoutout to @1957Chief for sending me a pair of backing plates. The are a good fit. They will get a quick sanding, primer, and paint before installing. THANKS! |
