Gear set up pattern

With mockup bearings there was a perfect pattern on drive and coast, but with new bearings coast pattern moved a little bit to the heel. Does that matter?

Move the pinion deeper, .002"-.004"

Going by the yukon guide, that looks good to go. I would run it. I usualy have a hard time getting a pattern as clear as that!

The pattern is to deep in the root of the tooth. Look at the pointed ends of the pattern at the heel an toe. No way are they 1/2 way up the tooth. And in my reply I typed it in wrong. It has too Much pinion shim, not too little. My mistake, sorry. It's not off a ton but I feel it's to deep.
