Can I swap front hubs?

I'm an idiot.

I pulled my front and rear wheel assemblies to install extended lugs, and the one thing I forgot to mark were the front hub assemblies.
How bad is it to not have the matching bearing race on each side, considering I have a 50/50 chance?

So this is just about getting the bearing matched up with the race it came out of? If the bearings and races are good, I wouldn't worry about it. If they're not, then the bearing & race need replaced and you'll have a matching set on that side anyway.

If they are ok with no wear, don't worry about it.
