The 2.5 ton rockwells I bought had the front hubs removed when I got them.  One hub does have Left hand thread studs and one has right hand thread studs.  I was wondering if anyone knows which side the left hand thread went on originally?  Driver or Passenger side?  Thanks

Generally L handed threads go on the L (drivers) side..
has to do with centrifical force and rotation, they are constantly tightening.

It's all fun and games till someone gets knocked up.. down or out !
