i did a drive shaft overhaul this weekend. new u-joints, almost new center bearing from my 84 mm.

i went to put the shaft back in and had to pull the rubber suspension in the center bearing about 1/4 " toward the rear to bolt it to the diff flange.

oops!

will it screw up anything like this? should i pull the shaft again spin the bearing around?

freaking mosquitoes biting and termites swarming had me rushing the work..
