What do you guys think of this pattern? BL is .007-.008 used gears...

Backlash is a little tight. Should be around .010 to .014, but over all pattern looks good.

Close, but good enough to not whine or is it going to move a bit when under a load - I got no F'ing clue.
Compare it to any drawing/picture for any hypoid R & P in anything - car truck whatever except a front 4WD, for the drive side, not the coast side. The BL means almost nothing except that the coast side will be OK if the driveside is correct.

The FSM says .005-.007 on the BL. The only thing I am unsure of is the drive pattern being a little on the thin side... I would like it a lot better if it were wider from face to flank.

Looks like you could be in a little bit too deep....

Yeah, I was going for a performance set up since I'm putting out quite a bit more power than factory.
Is this still an acceptable pattern? Performance oriented... noise is not an issue.
