So I am reassembling rear drum brakes. I am putting back together from a tear apart with a box of parts not labeled. Can someone tell me where this part goes and whether it's needed? I know it goes either in front of the dust shield/backing plate or behind it, but don't know exactly where....Any diagrams? Is it even a necessary part? This goes with the bolt/anchor pin that connects the brake springs...

it goes in front of the backing plate and if i remember correctly it sits horizontal, can say if you can discard it or not but i would use it since you have it
That goes on the face of the backing plate under the anchor bolt. The back of the backing plate goes up against the flange on the rear axle
That looks right to me, take the brake cylinder and there are two fingers that sit on that plate and make sure the cylinder sits properly
