Hi,
I'm in the process of re-gearing my Jeep crawler. Dana 60 front, Ford 10.25 in the back. I was able to figure out the front, but the rear is giving me a hard time.
It is a crush collar pinion, the collar is currently not in, the pinion does have a little bit of pre-load. The backlash is 8, spec is 6-10.
I don't need it to be perfect. This thing will likely never see any real street use, but don't want to destroy the gears.
I think I need to bring the pinion in a bit. What do you think?
I never really got the hang of reading a pattern.

Thanks.
