Explorer Rear Disc Pads

1998 Explorer with rear disk brakes.
I didn't realize that the rear brake pads are not identical. One end of
each pad has a notch, otherwise they appear identical. Does the notch ride
on the upper or lower rail? Or does it even matter? No reference in the
factory manual and pads are not identified with either a "R" or a "L".

Offhand I don't remember about the rears, but I definately know the
fronts are the same. I think those notches are generic, so the pad
will work no matter which side you use them on.
