Default 2004 dodge dakota rear brakes

Can someone please tell me how the rear brake pads on a 2004 dodge dakota go?
the outer brake pad has a flat spring that just rests on the caliper mounting bracket.
the one on the drivers side that spring sits on the top and the passenger side that flat spring sits on the bottom.

if someone can send me a pic of there rear brakes so I can see the orientation of where that flat spring on the brake pads go.
It will be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.

Can you look at the other side and tell? I always do breaks one wheel at a time so I have a reference to where everything goes.

My rear brakes are different on the other side.
The flat spring is on the bottom on one side and the other side the flat spring is at the top.
Paid mechanic too fix it for me 2 winters ago and that's what they did. Mix and match brake pads.
