Default Driveshaft center support bearing bolt spacers

I recently did a manual swap on my car.

I know my auto car had these metal spacers between the center support bearing mount and the chassis of the car.

I was wondering is the spacer really needed?

Literally had these in my hands today from a clutch job. I think you need them to maintain the geometry of the drive shaft, if you have them you might as well put them in.

Well I ask due to I feel like with the spacers it adds a drop to my driveshaft. I'm going to remove them and see if it makes a difference.
