How do you shim the lower brake shoe mount?  And how do you know if you
have full shoe contact?

I just completed a brake job last month and my old shoes did have more wear
on one end of the shoe (I think it was the top part of the shoe) which I
took to mean they were not fully contacting the drum.  I had no idea what
to do so I just renewed everything and put it back together.  Thanks
