Default rear wishbone ?

I bought a 38 ford coupe and there is a few strange things about it, and Im trying to figure out what is what?

The rear wishbones has two sets of bones both start at the outside of the axle one runs to the center of the torque tube and the other runs to the end of the torque tube, They look factory and they Both bolt on,

It also has Hyd Brakes with wide 5 drums, And they are not 40 ford brakes so I did not know if maybe this is a lincoln or Merc rearend and backing blates,

Any Ideas?
