First time regearing and have a few questions.
How do the patterns look?
And when I measure backlash in 4 spots equally spaced around the ring gear I have the following: .007, .008, .0085 and .055
All within the .006-.010 spec but surprised how much they vary.
Pinion preload is 10 in/lb without the seal and using an inner setup race and outer setup bearing. Spec is 6-9 in/lb.
The first two pics are the same teeth and don’t make sense to me given their position. The second two pics are a different set of teeth 180 degrees from the first pics.
