1963 GMC long bed converted to a short bed LS1 lq4 6.0 with a Muncie 4speed 3” drop spindals up front with 4” lower leaf springs in the rear

The truck had two drivelines when it was a long bed. One drive line now that it is a short bed. The original cross member for the carrier bearing is still on the truck. The clearance between the driveline and the carrier bearing cross member is only 1/4”. Do I need more clearance ? If so how much clearance should l create ?
