Correct. You can see the spacer between the spindle and backing plate in G&R's57GMC's photo of the left spindle.
I don't know why you would put those long spacers between the spindle and steering arms unless in a previous life that axle had real wide tires and wheels with a lot of positive offset and needed to have the tire rod ends clear the tires and a pretty suspect modification to do it.
