Procedure from the Bentley :

Mount the wheel cylinder on to the backplate with the neck through the large
slot. 
Replace the distance piece between cylinder neck and backplate, with the
open end away from handbrake lever location. 
The two cranked lips must also be away from the backplate. 
Insert the spring plate between the distance piece and backplate, also with
open end away from handbrake lever location and the two cranked lips away
from the backplate.
Replace handbrake lever. 
Locate the retaining plate between the distance piece and spring plate (open
end towards the handbrake lever), tap into position until the two cranked
tips of the spring plate locate in the retaining plate. 
Fit the rubber dust cover. 
Attach the pressure pipe union to the cylinder and connection to the
handbrake lever. 
Replace the shoes, brake drum, and bleed the system. 
Finally re-fit wheels,
