Default Dropped my front wheel spacers (help)

I have a 06 superglide with the cast front wheel and while I was putting in my intiminators I DROPPED THE DAMN WHEEL SPACERS AND MIXED THEM UP. What side does the bigger wheel spacer go on? Is it the brake side? Can anyone advise because the parts fiche is no help and the manual doesn't specify

My shop manual for a 2001 SG states that "the left side spacer is longer than the right side spacer." A quick visual check on the bike confirms this...

left if you're looking at the bike not sitting on it, right?

the left side of the bike is your left when you are sitting on it...the side the gear shift is on...if you have single disk brakes, it is the side with the caliper and disk.
