These were between the spindle and brake backing plate. Is there a name for these. Anyone know where to buy them? I bought the foam gasket between the firewall and master cylinder backing plate from Detroit Muscle. I'm going to contact them.

Those are splash shied gaskets to keep road slop/sand etc from getting into the back wheel bearing seal and causing it to get ground up and fail. If you can't find new ones you can make then out of the white closed cell packaging film used to wrap internet shipments. Or you can use Red or black RTV sealant if originality is not a concern.
