Photos do help. Visible in the one that you posted is the above mentioned offset of the bearings in their brackets.

Ah I see - so you are saying that since the bearings are not centrally seated within their brackets, the side (or direction) the offset is towards is front?

Edit: You say the offset is towards the rear...

So - when looking at the center bearings in the photo above - the circular portion of the housing which contains rubber that surrounds the bearing is offset from the portion of the housing which is mounted to the chassis.
You are saying that the portion of the center bearing housing which is essentially flush with it's mounting bracket portion faces rear? The only issue with that is it's facing the shorter yoke centering sleeve i.e. to the RIGHT in the photo.
