Crap, I didn't mark the shims, broke everything down a week ago and I'm just reading this thread. A great one might I add.

If you read the manual, the allowed backlash is .018 which means there will be a tiny bit of movement of the pinion when its all assembled. If you have the shims switched, there will be allot of movement in the pinion. Pretty easy to figure out.
Roger that, thanks

In fact, you can just set the ring gear in the case mating it to the pinion and tell which shim offers the smallest movement of the pinion.
Awesome write up! Besides the fancy tools I followed this two by step and it worked great!
