Title: pinion question
Post by: dholvrsn on January 25, 2009, 01:50:45 PM
I'm putting together an 8" rear for my turbo Pinto. The ring gear has a yellow paint mark across *three* teeth. The pinion has an old paint mark across one tooth, two newer paint marks pointing to two other teeth, and a grinding mark on yet another tooth. So how to I line this all up?

They have to be right or they will whine or self destruct.  Take a look at this page.  Gives you some basic setup instructions.
