TF Stock Front Axle

Ready to reassemble the front suspension on my '59. The axle looks to be symmetrical. Does it matter which side faces forward?

thanks

King pin taper retainer pins, push in from the front, and the nuts are at the rear.

There should be a 3/16 hole between the rear U bolt holes on the axle. It accepts the caster wedges so they don't slide out.
