brakes (still)

Sorry I keep asking questions about this but I'm still in the process of overhauling my brakes.

I saw the post by someone who had their brake shoes relined by American Industrial Brake in Westminster CO so I gave them a call. I was quoted $62 & change per axel. I mentioned the long and short lining and they said they would put the longer lining on all shoes. Is there any problem with that?
They also asked me to mark on the shoe what position it would be installed. Since they were all wrong when I took them off how would I know?
And they suggested I measure the drum diameter to see if they could install a thicker lining. Mine appear to be pretty close to 13".
Thanks, Rob
