It's the 11" passenger rear drum brake assembly. Been about 30 years since I did one.

Thanks
 
Looks good to me. I'd trust it but i'm sure more qualified will chime in.
 
Having trouble with the adjusters. One seems to have less tension than the other causing the tab to ride too low on the right rear one.
 
put 'em on
nice work
don't forget to manually adjust to the drum after you bleed and install the wheels. another option is to mount the drum and run some nuts up and adjust it before the wheels go on if you are not ready for the wheels yet
 
I just went through all this "converting" Fred (my '68 GTX) to the '69-up self-adjusters.
Although it all looks good in these pics, I'd suggest a couple things:
a. don't consider anything is "wrong" until they're on the car and torqued down
b. @khryslerkid taught me this one - the adjuster wheels have little "R" and "L" hidden inside
them so that you can make sure they're on the correct sides - take them apart and look down
inside and you'll see them

I did one side at a time and opened one box of parts at a time to get the correct part number for each side.
