Mine ended up how the middle diagram on acceptable looked. Personally I wasn’t thrilled with it but it was quiet. I believe I ended up at about .023 on my pinion just under what my stock was. Issue I ended up having on mine was it was preloaded a hair too much like .002 over if I remember correctly gave me hell trying to get it to pattern correctly. Ford performance 3.73 and Timken bearing. As quite as I can get the true trac for now several autocross days under it now with no issues.

That seems bit thin, are they Ford gears, or yukon?

that’s super interesting. I’ll have to try to see if the middle pattern is quiet for my gear set.
