Rear brake

What keeps the housing for the cam shaft from rotating in the rear backing plate?

I'm talking about the housing with the grease fitting that the brarings are in, I replaced the track assembly and the housing rotates in the track.

The housing should not rotate, talk to the supplier you purchased the rear brake track assembly from.

Okay, Thanks - Real bummer, the brake is already on the car and I haven't found the invoice in my stack yet. I didn't see the problem until I went for a final lube job and found the zerk fitting facing aft and unable to lub.

I believe that originally it was a rolled press fit (kinda riveted, if you understand what I'm trying to say).
I had a loose one and welded it solid w/the wire feed, while it was in place.

Thanks Katy, I believe that is what I will do.
