Thanks to all who replied.That's excellent informaton, and really clarifies 
things. This list is just great.
It seems that the PO's "restorer", who rebuilt the entire brake system never 
reinstalled the smallest of the 3 locking plates and then assembled the 
other 2 in the oppposite of the recommended directions .
It was a bit of a bear to disassemble, and now I realize I'm missing the 
smallest of the 3 plates. Everything seems like it should still be very 
tight, but should I hold off final assembly and driving until I can order 
that 3rd small plate? I don't want to have a safety issue, tho we've been 
driving it that way for a couple of years now.
Thanks again, folks.
