The Ford Barn

Well after a $700.00 bungle with my last (and final) purchase from Mac's I've listened to Barners and decided to repair what I've got. I will use some of the bits they sent me though.
What I'm asking "is there some schematics or measurements on the rear brake track" Mate Lawrie has offered to build these up and machine back to original.
If there are measurements available it would be a lot easer.

usually there is an area that has not worn, so you have the visual spec of what the height was when new. then you just want to follow that so both sides are straight and level with each other. lawrie can do it in his sleep!
