Gear Pattern Opinions Please
This is an 8.8 Ford (in my F150), but the gears don't know that. (ssshhh!)
I have limited experience setting up gears, but I've never seen a pattern that encompasses the entire tooth, drive and coast. And I don't see any pictures like these online.
I used Ford Motorsport gears (going from 2.73 open, to 3.31's w/ a Traction Lok. I used the original pinion shim, and the original left side carrier shim. There's about .008 back lash, the spec is .008 to .012.
