I have been told that there is damage to the brake bracket in my pictured transmission. I believe in pix 3, on the left side, the arm (?) that holds something against the drum is busted. I have been told this renders the brake/back plate useless and on no value to anyone.
Yes, the band brake support shank is broken off of your Retainer Plate. The only thing that plate is good for now is for a 1/2 ton truck that doesn't use a propeller shaft parking brake system...they uses cables to the rear axle drums like a car.
