Take some better pics. Try closeup mode and maybe some flash. Hard to tell.

Default pict

I'll have to redo it and send some better pictures tomarrow i'm at work now but heres another.
I did have it at .0065 BL and my CD was a couple thousands off but the drive side was to close to the toe so I moved the pinion away from the center .002 and my BL is at .008 and the drive pattern is moving away from the toe.
the shim I have now is what was on there from stock.
2.73 gears
I'm going with 3.42

I think you need a thinner shim.

won't that move the drive pattern closer to the heel,
and the coast to the toe.
I thought you wanted to keep the drive tores the toe and the coast tores the center.
thanks
