A quick question regarding front brakes, fellas.
According to the workshop manual, the long shoe is the primary and the short shoe is the secondary.
Does the primary (long shoe) go to the front or the back?
Im pretty sure its the front, but I just want to check.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks mate.
Im pretty sure its right though.
Big shoe leading, small shoe trailing.
Unless an eggspurt corrects me.
