The front drums and brake pad shoes were dropped off at the shop a few days ago for re-lining and removing the groves from the drums.

In the meantime I removed the tie rod after a bit of work. The ends have been taken apart and eventually the rod itself will be blasted and painted. One thing I have noticed is that I seem to be missing one of the large coiled springs for the tie rod. Now I have to try and find one. Does anyone know if it crosses over to another GM part from the period?
