Air locker help

Worked on cleaning up the rear diff and ran a gear pattern. Drive side seems toward the toe and coast side is toward the heel. Don't seem to be touching the peak or root.

Now, of course, I never set up gears before so I don't entirely know what I'm doing. Not sure if I put enough drag on the ring gear while running the pattern or how that might effect the pattern. Also, from my searches, it looks like with used gears (these are secondhand axles, after all) once they have worn in a pattern, there's not much to do but run it or replace the gears.

What do yall think? I'm leaning toward running it but knowing in the back of my mind I may need to replace the gears at some point in the next year or so.

Of course I ran out of time to get a pattern on the front. Gonna have to wait a day or two on that.
 
After a quick search on here: Circle K
So, unless I missed it, that thread doesn't address the question as to whether or not Circle K's trademark is a K in a circle. It seems obvious that that would be the case, but since no one who knows confirmed it, my last post was an attempt to make that small leap for the OP, but also to point out that I don't know that to be 100% confirmed. I've never seen it discussed, and I've done a LOT of searching this forum in the last nine months...

No worries. I think the small leap is the right one. A k inside a circle leads me to believe that they are circle k gears.

I agree. However, I try not to present supposition as fact because it isn't, and I felt compelled to point that out. Carry on...

You are correct. I did make a small leap but it seemed logical.
