49-54 chev spindles
Well I've been pretty sick the last few days, and it's -30 degrees C so needless to say I'm getting pretty bored. I was going to put my front axle from Speedway together so here's some more questions.
First this is the kit:

That has the only instructions and I've never done this before either.
Which side is up on these bearings:

and why do I have 4 shims when it only shows one on each side??
This is the order I get with the right being the top:

The middle discs are convex so I'm assuming they would curve into the kingpin, they're also a little big so do these get pressed in?? Next on the top and bottom are what I think are dust covers, these are loose and have no way to hold them in place, any ideas???
Finally, what are these, steering stops???

Do they go into the holes shown in the kingpin housing where the small allen key is???
I thought this would be easy until I took a closer look.
Thanks,
