If the adjustment slots can allow the brackets to hit the shaft then something is wrong. IH wouldn't allow that to happen either.
Just to clear up the drive shaft indexing, here is a pix of the way it should look assembled. If ever one has a question, look @ any driveshaft on a rear wheel drive vehicle.
Any other indexing combination will result in vibration/excessive wear.
