    well i took one fo the pinon shims off and adjustd the backlash to .005. forgot to masure the pinon shims but th carrir shims are .205 i think i still see a line but it looks like its getting shallowr? or am i just imagining things. should i bring th pinion back some more?

    saw it when i pushed the pinion bearings off today. so i dont need to make carrier set up bearings? just both of the pinion ones correct? and did you use no crush sleve or the old one for set up?

    how did you adjust the collar and figure what shims to use for the carrier? im about to regear the 14sf i got to 4.88 with a lock right. trying to do all my research while im still collecting the parts for it. do i only need to make set up bearings for the pinion since the carrier uses shims on...
