You forgot the Moon...If the KJ was on the Moon it would be the luner side.....

Right & Left are determined from the perspective of the driver. If you forget, the lower control arms have a big "L" & "R" molded on them, just like the marks I have in my shoes

Some deep thinking there...

My dad was in the Navy during WW2...he always preferred either "port" or "starboard" instead of left and right.

Starboard = Right
Left = Port

think "I just left port". It's the easiest way to remember it i know!

Port is left and starbord is right.

why? did the **** invent "Left" and "Right".

LOL you guys....I knew which was which, my father-in-law and bro-in-law were both Navy so I've heard the "left port" many times (also remember port=4 letters and left=4 letters). I was just being a wise ****.

My point was that you still have to know that the port side is the drivers side looking from aft (rear)....in most sane countries .

Wow this is getting way off topic and way too confusing .

Port is always left side as you look forward (towards front of vehicle from within).....or on top.....or below

Just want you to know that I do not appreciate that word even if it does pertain to the use during that time period.
