So I forgot to take a photo and Ive restored similar fans but I am having parts amnesia. Can someone tell me which of these is the front bearing and what their orientation should be (longer end vs shorter)? It is the little quiet blade pedestal 49x712.20240325_131759.thumb.jpg.e1be6205cd6788ec623a6b44ca710318.jpg

There will be rotor shaft fiber shim wear/scaring on the "in-side" of the bearing sleeve to guide you for orientation. It has been a while but the bearing in the image my bet goes to the front.
