Default Rear differential question.

I was wondering if anyone knows is their a spacer that goes on before the yolk is installed on the rear differntial My yolk isnt in contact with outer bearing so i cant crush the sleeve. Not sure where im going wrong. I didnt remember seeing one when i took mine apart. If someone can post an expanded view i would be greatful. Thanks in advance.
