Hey guys,

Feeling pretty dumb about this one but I figured I'd ask anyway in case there was something obvious I'm missing.

According to my ruler, my bike's bottom bracket is 68mm. When I pulled the old one off (installed by who knows) it had one spacer on the drive side, but the instructions that came with the new one says 68mm should have 2 spacers on the drive side, and one on the other side. When Installed like this the spindle "floats" from left to right.

Do the crank arms even this up, or do I need to remove 1 or 2 spacers?

that's why we drink it here
I believe this is the one where there is a step in the spindle. If that is the case, mount your non-drive crank arm. That should lock it in place laterally.
