Ring gear pattern Soothsayers-help!

Need some help guys. Setting up a brand new Eaton and gear set.

Painstakingly went thru the measurements, pinion depth called for 3.751 and I showed 3.750 on my initial setup. Using solid pinion spacer, preload was just about spot on at 24 inch pounds.

Gear manufacturer called for .007-.009 backlash, mine came in at .0075 which is a bit tighter than I want, but looking at the pattern it looks as if my pinion is too shallow.

Can anyone look at this and give me some help? I’m guessing I’m about .0010 or .0015 thin on my pinion spacer.

Thanks in advance!!
