NOTE: The ring gear and pinion are manufactured
within a tolerance of a specified distance. On the end
of each pinion, there is marked a plus (+) number, a
minus (-) number, or a zero (0) number which
indicates the best running position for each particular
gear set. This dimension is controlled by the
shimming behind the rear pinion bearing cup. When
the shim thickness is decreased, the pinion gear is
moved away from the ring gear. When the shim
thickness is increased, the pinion is moved closer to
the ring gear. A positive (+) number on the drive
