Side to side was pretty snug, it took a bit to pry out the carrier. I double checked my pinion depth and I'm .005 shallow from original setup, so I'm tearing it down to adjust. When I turn the pinion with my drill I can hear a throbbing sound that matches ring gear rotation too, pretty sure that's not right. I never checked ring gear run out because everything is new, guess I need to, and check my pattern in a few different spots as well.
