Well after spending that last few days trying to locate shim stock to adjust the rear axle pinion height, I finally hit pay dirt. The king pin shims for an I-beam axle ford are the same inner and outer diameter as the Rapier pinion bearings. I added .010″ to the shim stack and nail’d the gear pattern first time. Happy days!!!

After I rolled the pattern, I installed the third in the freshly painted axle housing and added some shiney new fasteners.
