I have always been a stickler for doing things the right way. That being said, I'll bet thousands of guys have done it wrong over the last 85 years and were never aware of it.

Is this a trick question? Since you are in California, I will assume "passenger side" means the right side. The brakes shoes look weird to me. Both linings appear to be about the same length, but are positioned strangely.
