Dana 44 4.88 gears. Backlash is about .006 I think. The pinion bearing shims are a little tight, but I can change that tomorrow after I pick up an adapter for my torque wrench. What do you guys think about it?

The coast looks spot on but the other side looks pretty high up on the teeth.

That's kinda what I was thinking too. The right move is to decrease pinion depth then, right?
