[QUOTE="03SVTCOBRA10TH, post: 7972390, member: 11983"] No, I'm not trying to say you don't know what the pinion gear is, you are doing a great job so far, and I want you to be able to solve this problem and get back on the road. I guess I am just not making myself clear. I was answering your question in the above thread about which flat spot to measure to/ from. Let me see what I can do about some pics. What I want you to do is so simple, I guess my explaination was too confusing. Try this: [url]http://www.modularfords.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1329785#post1329785[/url] Yes, you will most likely be ok with carrier shims as you said the backlash was 0.004 and you want 0.006-0.008, so you can just remove shims and try to restack them to get the proper backlash, unless you only have a master set, which has only one shim per side.
