Does the longer faced primary shoe mount toward the front or rear of the trailer? Or does it matter?
Thanks,

The larger brake shoe mounts on the side closest to the front of the vehicle, the smaller one to the rear. When the brakes are applied, the smaller shoe grabs first, which pushes the larger shoe so it applies. This allows the brakes to apply and wear evenly.
