ring gear pattern
Hi guys and girls
I am doing my first final drive and wanted to have your opinion on the pattern I am having.
Hope the pictures are more or less ok. I think the last 2 images the pattern is best visible (I applied some resistance to the crownwheel while rotating on those 2)

Looks good to me. Very similar to my efforts when I installed Miffy's ATB. Thumbs Up If you want to compare I am pretty certain I posted my patterns in the Miffy Workshop thread.

France 2008 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 CSW Zermatt Silver
It just happened that I very recently changed the rear diff center of my Puma 110 for an Ashcroft ATB (P38 differential housing). I had excessive play between the side and spider gears, making a "clunk" noise in some situations, which was annoying as the rest of the transmission is pretty tight.

The ring and pinion were still good after 130K, so I re-used those, saved me from having to adjust a new pinion height and preload in the housing. So basically, only a new ATB diff center with its new side bearings kindly pressed in by Ashcroft before shipping (thank you).
Anyway, after setting the backlash as per the manual, I checked the pattern and although it looked good to my untrained eyes, I was not sure. Having driven the Landy since on all type of roads including motorways, I am satisfied that it is neither howling nor whining. And the "clunk" is gone. Cool

Below the pictures of my pattern if you want to compare, similar to yours, so you should be good ?

That looks good.
I am also keeping housing , pinion , crownwheel, but my preload with the same shim was wrong
