• Assemble the electric backing plate onto the weld ring
• Place the drum over the axle profile dry (without grease).
• Lock the axle nut so that the drum is in position.
• Adjust brake shoes so shoes almost lock into the drum.
• Adjust the drum and backing plate so both parts are concentric on the axle.
• Tack the weld ring into position at 4 points and de-assemble.
• After de-assembly, finish welding the weld ring into place.
