Default Front driveshaft installation

I have a 1995 Cherokee. I bought it without the front driveshaft. I pulled a driveshaft off a 94. I want to know if it matters how it goes back on. Isn't it weighted on one side? Doesnt the weight have to be on a particular side when mounted? Thanks John

pretty sure you just bolt it on and go..the weight is going to spin with the roatation of the driveshaft regardless of how it is put on

The slip end of the shaft goes toward the front axle.
