Default Bent Drum Plate

Dana 35 Drum Brakes 9inch

Not exactly sure if this is the correct part but the plate that all the drum brakes are attached to is bent on my cherokee and i can't seem to find a place to order new plates from, is there a way to flatten it out again or is there a place to buy a new plate from?

Sorry if this is in the wrong thread list.

you should not have to press anything you will have to pull the axleshaft though to get the plate off there are plenty of writeups on the forum to show you how wether it c-clip or not
