Dana 44 front axle hubs question...

[Tink]

I had to pull apart my hubs to inspect for a noise/vibration on my Dana 44 (from a 76 K5). It took me a few weekends to get it back together since I never had a lot of time... So, now I've forgotten... when you've gotten everything back together in the hub (this is still fulltime 4wd) does the snap ring go in the first or second grove on the axle shaft - the one farthest away or closest to the diff??
