Default Brake shoe interchange

In the catalogs 46-48 shoes have a different part number than the earlier hydraulic shoes. It appears the anchor hole on the 46-48 shoes has two "flats", earlier shoes have a round hole.....
You know where this is going...will the 39-41 shoes fit on 46-48 backing plates?

The 39-41 shoes have adjustable anchors on the bottom, the 46-48 don't have them. They won't enterchange. Walt
