Default rear end info?

Has anybody here setup their own rear end, using a dial indicator for back lash/pinion depth and had good resoults. If so I would like to hear about how you did it. I'm interested in getting the tools and learning how to setup my own rear ends.

I did it on my 10-bolt. All I did was change the gear to a Richmond gear set. Just follow their and a car manual instruction. I got lucky and have the contact paste show properly on the ring gear.
