Are both the hubs the same on the front? as in, if you strip the front drum down to the basic hub, can I use any on either side?

One of my hubs is worn on the inside, bearings are loose on the outside and really tight on the inside.

Think I'd rather replace it to be on the safe side.

Thanks for any help..

Looking at before photos, it shows the grease nipples to the front with steering arm mount to the top. Looks like I need a drivers side hub

Upper and lower Ball joint Grease nipples face the front on both sides
