98 k1500 4wd rear drum brake hardware

A wrecker recently pulled my 98 Suburban K1500 (11.15 x 2.75" drum brakes) up onto the flat bed without releasing the parking brake first. It literally tore my drum brakes apart. I am having trouble finding the two parking brake levers and the two parking brake strut bars, as well as the slave cylinder rods. Can anyone please help me find these parts?

If they damaged it by doing something negligent, they should have insurance to cover repairing things like that. Have you talked to them about it?

Have you looked at places like RockAuto? https://www.rockauto.com

If RockAuto doesn't have them listed, probably a wrecking yard or maybe (kind of a stretch), a dealership might still have those type parts.

I still have the backing plates and associated hardware from my K1500 when I converted from drum to disks on the rear axle of my truck. I can post some pics and you can compare the parts if it will help you out. I'm sure I won't be needing them again.

ROCKAUTO has a couple of different vendors that offer this type of kit but they don't include the flat bars you're needing.
