question for drop axle owners/taper bearing kit

Filling my weekend with both axle swaps and have a question on the fron drop axle with taper bearing kit. O.e.m set up has a floating dust shield behing the inner hub bearing and it rides on the backing plate. When you switch over to tapered bearings do you use the shield or does the collered lip of the backside of the inner hub bearing rest against the backing plate/spindle area? The new set up pushes the inner seal far enough into the backside of the hub and won't touch like the old set up and I can't find any tech on this with gearsy finge
Thanks
