70 dart 470 ci drag car build.
Okay I think I got it.
I added .050 shim behind pinion bearing race and sacrificed a bearing on the passenger side to add in additional .015 to give room for more depth.
Picture sucks but I think this is probably as good as it can get unless I got some other sized shims like some .005s.
Oh and 30 inch pounds on the preload.
I'll reclean all this **** at work tomorrow but I think it's okay now.
I will also run the pattern one more time with Yella grease to double check it.
Good news I probably got 2 miles out of 500 break in done lol
