On my 65 Wagon (besides the shoes showing heat cracks) I noticed the set of "Short Shoes" or foward facing shoes the pad is bonded lower on one than the other The long shoes or rear facing shoes are not different I never noticed this before and its on new and old shoes as well Could these be Front and Back shoes? Left and Right shoes? It cant be a factory screw up because why would I have so many that are different opinions?
Brake Shoes Hi Roger, The difference in the shoes is as designed. One is the primary shoe, other is secondary. Hope this helps. JOE
Hello Primary as in front axle? vs secondary as back axle? Each set per wheel has the long and short shoe and the long shoe faces back and the Short Shoe faces front These 2 shoes in the images are both "Short Shoes" and the pad is bonded different on each I have never seen this before and was confused on if the Short Shoes are different from front axles to back axles
Brake Shoes Hi Roger, Each wheel has a primary & secondary shoe. Primary faces rear, secondary faces front. If you had 2 secondary shoes on one wheel,someone messed up while replacing them. JOE
