Default 9" Gear install

Does anyone have a link or can provide some install tips for the gears? I have put in gears in 10 and 12 bolts, but I've never done a 9". I purchased a center section with 10 passes on it from my uncle that has 4.86 gears, but I want a taller gear, 3.50 range. Everything looks awesome in the center section.

A link would be nice, also what I should buy to do the gears install.

Figured I'd share what I finally found. Does this look right:

Sorry I haven't gotten back to ya. It was a busy weekend.

This thread has some really good information about preloading the side cap adjusters and the proper technique for doing so.
