I think I see the answer to my question now that I just married the undercarriage to the body.....automotive assembly line here, overhead cranes, robots, dip painting...........
The Jeep is so narrow that there isn't room for the front differential between the front springs so the engine has to be offset from center to the driver's side allowing room. Therefore on the passenger side you have the diff, and you may or may not have a passenger. On the driver's side hopefully you have a driver and you have a good part of the weight of the engine and tranny. The transfer case is mostly on the pass. side but is about "amid ship" so it's weight is proportioned between both axle springs.

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
