Super A bull gears

The actual gear is offset to one side from the center that it is riveted to, on the other side the gear is about even with the center. Diagrams are not too clear, but I assume the offset side goes to the inside, the flat side toward the wheel? This allows the gear teeth to more or less fit into the taper at the end of the axle splines.
 
As always, I'm prepared to get shot down, but with a look at the books, I'm pretty confident my memory's comin' back. I believe the longer side of the splined center goes to the outside, and the washer fits up on the inside end, under the bearing, to make up the difference. If that matches up with what you're finding with any taper in the splines, that'd boost my confidence even more.

I think that washer you mention will tell the tale as I think it has to fit between the flat side of the gear and the inner bearing, if that's where it goes--this thing has been apart a long time, and that is one part I had forgotton about. I'll look tomorrow, don't want to put it together find out that the gears aren't lined up, and risk ruining the seal by having to take it apart again.
 
Scotty is correct, the longer side of the hub goes towards the wheel. The side where the rivet heads stand out most pronounced goes towards the inside, towards the small bearing, towards the differential. Makes sense?

You could also view it like this. The gear is riveted to the splined hub. In relative position, the gear is on the side of the large wheel bearing and the splined hub is on the side of the small wheel bearing.
 
Thanks Hendrik and Scotty, I had it backwards. The IH manual and the I&T manual both show the cross section, and looking at that is a little hard for me to figure out. Looking closer the diagram agrees with both of you.
