It is never supposed to come off. So Ford didn't make repair parts. Luckey for you the entire backing plate is fairly common, just remove the bolts holding it to the axle housing, brake line, brake and parking brake parts and replace with another backing plate. You will have to find the correct side and fronts differ from rears. 46-8 car and light commercial are the same. Make sure the other wheel adjusters work before buying just one.
