I have my 1979 chevy rear brakes apart and what I found is not correct. These were done about 25 years ago. they do last a long time. They are the 13x3.5 shoes. I'm really unsure of how the springs fit. I took pics before I dug into this but now looking at this they are not right. Thanks for any help. A factory pic of the brake springs orientation would be very helpful...

Not any help here but my '79 c30 is the same way. I always wandered why my e-brake didn't work. Then when I changed the shoes I thought hmmm no wander. Apparently someone had taken out most of the stuff for the e-brake for some reason. But if it would help, I could take mine apart and see if I can get some pictures. Minus the e-brake stuff.
