I found out a long time ago that I never say left or right when working on a vehicle. It's always drivers side or passenger side. I've had too many customers stand right beside me in front of a car and say that "it's right there on the left side of the car" while pointing to the passenger side of the car. I cut up an 86 S-10 Blazer a few months ago and believe that Truckdude239 nailed it with his description. Driver's side goes into the center section and has a splined male end while the passenger side has a flange that bolts to the flange on the stub shaft that comes out of the center section.
