When replacing the carrier, you wont have to make pinion depth adjustments.
You will need to establish correct carrier bearing preload with shims then
adjust the shims from side to side to achieve proper backlash. Not nearly as
involved as setting up a new gearset but you will have a few adjustments to make.
