teardown was too rusty/dirty to see anything well enough to make sense of it.
I never had front drums before.
One spring that came off doesn't resemble anything in new hardware kit. No idea where it goes.
thanks.

This is one of a great many reasons why you really need a proper service manual._________________ 一期一会

| Wow!
Should I be feeling "old" if I'm surprised by that statement?

In the future, it might behoove you to clean the item being rebuilt before disassembly and take a few pictures of the unit still assembled for reference. At least until you get a factory service manual. |

Thanks Slanted Opinion.
I won't need it. I figured it all out.
Mystery spring was really just a broken spring.
(One side at a time was not an option as I had to evaluate what was salvageable before making the decision to temporarily restore 9" drums, or do disk swap first. As it turned out, I got by with new drums, hardware, self adjusters, lug studs, wheel seals and wheel cylinder kits and some shop time to press/swage/cut. Had I needed much more, I'd have abandoned the drums altogether.)
Thank you everyone for your replies.
