i thought that was the case, they were re-fitted from the back of the plate by a re-tard, thats why my brakes failed and i had to re-do them :OThe wheel cylinders have a "step" or raised sides, these point away from the back plate and prevent the shoes coming off the wheel cylinders by hooking the upper edge of the shoes behind them. There are little teflon pads that the shoes ride against on the back plates. If they are worn wise to replace them.
