I ordered up a set of 5.29's from PORC the other day. I'm going to install them myself. (unless someone local wants to help) I plan on re-using the bearings if they check out OK. I ordered up 2 crush sleeves to do the install. I've read through multiple gear installs on the web, and plan on following those closely. I was planning on bringing the pinions to work and swapping pinions since I don't have a press at home, but do at work.

I just don't know how to accurately read the gear pattern using the paint. If I set it up and post a pic of the pattern, could you guys tell me "add a shim" or whatever, and then come back with another pic? I want to get them setup right. Thanks!
