On the Right rear, I found that someone had broken off the slave piston limit tabs from the backing plate. Rather than try to replace the backing plate, I welded some tabs back on.

These are NOT used or necessary when the brakes are assembled - they're only to prevent the pistons from shooting out during brake maintenance & repairs. But these pistons are rusted in their bores, so none of them moved when the brakes came off.
