Continuing to close in to having my beetle on its tires.
Last night, I installed both rear brake drums, for real this time. Hopefully that's the last I'll see of the inside of those drums for quite some time.
Just in case I need to check how something was set up, I took some photos of the brake assembly just before putting the drums on. Here's the right rear brake assembly, top and bottom:
And the drum on the left rear, including the axle nut and the cotter pin:
An interesting optical effect is that the rusty fingerprints you see in the photo are all but invisible to the eye.
