What is done with bearing cover? Does 911 backing plate replace bearing cover or do we modify bearing backing plate and use both together?

thanks

I made up spacer plates that both cover the bearing and set the 911 backing plate to the correct depth for the brake shoes to sit centered in the drum (for the handbrake function). I believe the required spacing is something like 5mm from memory? Chris Foley or Eric S would probably know the correct offset,
