Okay I am confused. On a drum system the backing plate is where the shoes
and springs and such all mount. A disk system has a caliper bracket that
may or may not be part of the spindle.
Can you give me an example where they might interchange?

Yes they do. and some will interchange with the drum plates while other
will not.
Now maybe some of the newer models may not have them but all of the older
ones did.
