Does the larger brake pad go on the rear or the front of the rear brakes of a 2002?
Large goes twoard front, shorter to rear. WRONG! the smaller shoe faces toward the front of the van. if one shoe is shorter then the other, the shorter shoe ALWAYS faces toward the front of the vehicle. this is called servo style brakes, if the the shoes are the same length then it dose not matter witch one faces forward, this is called non-servo style brakes. but in this case GM uses servo style brakes so the smaller shoe faces the front.
