I currently do not have an e brake installed. Previous owner did not put in possibly due to race seats in front? Any advice on remote e brake kits such as e-stopp or others? Any restrictions or best place to install? Thanks in advance for your help.

RIF

The stop is welded to the arm. Pretty stout plate. With a 1/4 inch of bead on both sides its not going to tear off.

The shoes are mounted inside the rotors drum recess. On the opposite end of the stop are the adjusters. Where is it going to rotate to?

Back in the days of the dinosaurs drum brake shoes were mounted to the backing plate held onto an axle housing by 4 bolts. Shoes were tethered by pins, springs and keepers to the backing plate with similar stop. Oh wait they are still like that on modern cars and trucks.
