On both sides some pieces fell out before I could see how they were put together. I figured it out but I need to see how the bottom spring, adjuster, that tab and cable fit together. A nice picture would be great. 86 so no ABS.

OK I think I had it together right. My problem is my bottom shoe spring that goes to the adjustor lever and the adjustor cable are too loose and will not stay together. A picture of an assembled set up on the jeep would be excellent. Thanks for the help.

Another note, sorry I missed the edit. My left and right sides have the same self adjusting style set up. Its like the left rear of the diagram shown. I just can't seem to get it tight enough for it all to stay together.

Measure the drums and get shoes and cables to match.
