Rear brake shoes - mental blank! [SORTED]
I'm in the process of putting all the components back onto the rear-right back drum brake - and I can't remember which brake shoe goes
where! The metal part of the shoes are identical, but the actual friction material is mounted in a different position on each one. Clearly one is
meant to go on the forward side, and the other on the back. Trouble is - I can't remember which is which... 
Can anyone confirm that the ones in the picture are the correct way round? Brake cylinder at the top, right-hand (driver's) side, laid out as
if you'd just taken the drum off and were looking in at the shoes.

As you'e got themin the picture is the O/S. The leading edge is the end of the shoe with the longer plain bit.
