How's my gear pattern?
Anyone with some knowledge help a first timer out?

Toyota 8"
G2 gears
All new bearings
.093 Pinion Shims
.007 Backlash
15 inch pounds preload\
A big Mahalo in advance
Drive side
Coast side

That looks pretty good! That would work fine but if you are a perfectionist I would add roughly .005 to .010 to the pinion depth and see if the pattern will go a tad deeper (into the root of the tooth) on the push side.

Thanks for the response guys. I'll add a little more shim and see what happens.
I was told that .007 was a good backlash to have for new bearings...
