Adger, I remember from my days as a heavy line tech at Buick using the kent moore tools to set pinion depth.The service manual said it was a ? nominal? measurement. Which I understood to mean, it is , but it isn?t , but it could be ,what you just measured.The caps not split on center might be the reason for a nominal measurement.
