The only springs on my 3600 brakes hold the shoes to the levers(?) that mount to the great big pin at the bottom of the backing plate. The pins and springs you're talking about sound like the ones one the rear drums of my wife's cavalier... Bendix style. Huck brakes are WAY different. Bid pin at the bottom, overlapping arms on the pin going up the fron and rear, one big return spring just below the cylinder and a double-ended, fixed cylinder with two adjusters and no auto-adjustment. Fun stuff!

Current fleet (subject to change w/o notice) \'49 GMC 3/4-Ton , 60 Austin Healey Frog-eye Sprite (some assembly required), 2011 Dodge Avenger, 2015 Jeep Cherokee. No, they don't all run. My other ride is a (B737)no, (B767)no, A320.... Update... was Embraer E190, now Boeing B787. Knowledge is a wonderful thing, but ignorance means you don't know you can't do something.
