Strange S60 Question

[EngineerDoug]

I am preparing my new S60 axle assembly for rear drum brake installation - got a simple question. This rearend came with green bearings installed. I see there is a composite gasket that came on each end of the axle. It is not the old style beaded metal gasket. I assume the composite gasket goes between the axle housing and the backing plate, then the plate, then the foam gasket, and then the axle flange? No end play to worry about or adjust?

Just checking; thanks folks!
