Put the front Dana 30 together today and have adjusted pinion depth several times. This pattern is the best I have been able to get. Backlash is at .008 to .009 when I check on multiple places around the ring gear.
The drive side is centered pretty good between the heel and toe but is up higher towards the face. I can tighten up the backlash some to make the gears mesh a little deeper.
The coast side is out towards the heel but not running off the edge.
