10/12 Bolt 9.5in Drum Backing Plate Right

The 10/12 Bolt 9.5in Drum Backing Plate Right from Right Stuff Detailing is an essential brake component designed for classic and vintage vehicle restoration, particularly drum brake systems common on muscle cars, trucks, and performance builds from the 1960s through early 1980s. This backing plate serves as the structural foundation for drum brake assemblies, providing the mounting surface for wheel cylinders, brake shoes, and hardware. Whether you're rebuilding a complete brake system or replacing a corroded original, this right-side backing plate restores proper brake geometry and ensures safe operation of your vehicle's stopping system.

Manufactured to original specifications, the 10/12 Bolt 9.5in drum backing plate features a robust steel construction that withstands the thermal cycling and mechanical stresses inherent in drum brake operation. The 10/12 bolt pattern indicates compatibility with standard American muscle car and truck rear axle housings, while the 9.5-inch drum diameter specification ensures correct fitment with matching drum components. Precision drilling and casting tolerances guarantee proper alignment of wheel cylinder bores and brake shoe anchor pins, critical for even brake pad wear and consistent pedal feel during both street and performance driving.

Technicians and enthusiasts restoring or upgrading classic American vehicles benefit most from this component, particularly when converting failed or severely corroded original backing plates or sourcing complete brake system replacements. Right-side installation pairs with a corresponding left backing plate to complete the rear axle assembly. Proper installation requires careful alignment during axle housing mounting and coordination with new wheel cylinders and brake shoes to ensure consistent braking pressure across both wheels, essential for vehicle safety and handling stability.
