Jerry I did the work myself. Followed the available online instructions to the “T”. Backlash and runout were set within specs and all was reassembled. What is not addressed anywhere I could find are instructions involving those three set screws you mentioned. I reinstalled them to the exact same depth as the original for lack of data.
I have inspected the ring and pinion gears and they are still unscathed. Just the scraping of the carrier. I went approximately 100 yards total in my test…
If there is data out there pertaining to the three set screws I would appreciate at least a link to it.
Thanks Jerry
