yes there should be a spacer on each side, they set the bearing preload. (sometimes they need to be shortened)
If you need bearings, you also need to get them from the axle manufacturer as the bearing retainer is different than what the parts stores have.
I know Superior axle sells them and I imagine Moser does also.
