Are those gears used ?
If yes see the next 2 questions, if no go to 3 thru 7
1. Did the previous owner tell you the bl they were running at ?
2. Did the previous owner give you the pin depth shim it was using ?
If yes to both toss them, buying used gears without the set up they were installed with is like playing with yourself using a cheese grater, it'll pop off eventually but do you really want to do it ?
3. before worrying about pin preload lets get the pattern within reason.
4. using no preload shim or crush collar tighten the pin up till it needs light force to turn
5. set the carrier in and adjust bl to .007 to .008
6. run the pattern turning the pin and putting as much pressure as you can on the carrier like a brake.
7. post the pics of the drive and coast side like i did
