Putting my 14 bolt brake shoes back on this week and curious on new springs seems you get 2 longer and 2 shorter in pack and also looked on web and they offer same thing. So does the rear shoe or the front shoe get the longer hold down spring in the middle of shoe? I am referring to one where the pin goes through backing plate and spring goes on the hold down you have to turn to get it to lock. Here is a reference picture.

Are you saying the new springs don't work, or there are extra springs? The only thing I can think of is if there are extra springs, it is for two different sizes of drum brakes.
