Question:

Looking at a brake system with the drum off, the secondary brake shoe location is?

I'm practicing for the ASVAB and I'm stuck on this particular question.Looking at a brake system with the drum off, the secondary brake shoe location isA. the front shoe (closest to the front).B. the rear shoe (closest to the rear).C. not important.D. only required for disc/drum systems.

Answer:

the back shoe is the secondary shoe. on some older cars you have a short shoe and a long shoe. the long shoe goes on the back. i changed several brake shoes over the years.
The rear shoe is the secondary shoe.
the answer is b, and the secondary shoe is longer harder and darker.
