Quick question on rear drum breaks
 
It has been a while since i have done drum brakes,putting the rears together for the first time on my build and need to know if the SHORT shoe goes in front facing the cab or on the rear of the drum.?

Thanks in advance.!!!!

Silly question, but is it the same for the front brakes, short shoe to the front.

Thanks
