The short shoe should be the leading shoe or placed to the front of car. Sounds like I’m not the only one that has this problem. I bought the shoes from a private seller on eBay they were new in the box but now I’m realizing it’s probably why he sold them haha. I will inspect the holes further today I’m guessing they are some of the ones that were stamped wrong
