I was told by one of the Richmond gear reps(engineer) at the track that when you start hurting the outside edge of the teeth on the ring gear to set the pinion depth deeper(closer to the axle centerline), like .010 more than what is on the gear set for pinion depth That is suppose to help make the ring and pinion stay together better when the housing flexs at the hit of the throttle which makes the outsdie edge of the ring gear move away from the pinion which lessens the tooth contact between them BTW, it does help setting them deeper especially on 8 3/4




A good reason to use a Moser or Strange Housing.
