Just did the initial setup on my 14SF/Trutrac project. 3.73 used gears from a different housing, used original pinion shim, and carrier shim from current housing. Backlash matched original readings at .007", taken at 4 spots around the ring gear. Pattern looks OK to me, but this is my first time setting up a rear end. You can see the wear on some of the teeth, looks close to the pattern in the marking compound.
