Atlas axle diff bearing caps

[tellyman]

Went to put my diff back in my atlas last night and was wondering which way the diff bearing caps are supposed to be as they are numbered 1 and 2. Am I right in thinking that the cap has a chamfered edge on one side and this should point to the wheel. And that 1 should be on the left and 2 on the right as you look from the back. As Im pretty sure they were upside down when i pulled them off with the numbers facing down. Any help would be great.
Thanks

Chamfers point towards the wheels, yes.

But 2 goes on the left, 1 goes on the right, with the numbers at the top, upside down!

It does look odd...

Imagine you built the axle on a production line with the axle itself upside down... It'd make sense.

Thanks for the help. Im glad i don't have to pull the diff cover back off and swap them around.
