rear gears
That is the proper gauge, dial indicator.
Back in my darker drag racing days, and old man showed me the cheap easy way to set ring to pinion clearance.
a piece of notebook paper is the proper thickness, 6-7 thousands.
Install the gears, then run the paper in between the ring and pinion, if all the play disappears, and the gears don't bind, you have the correct clearance.
But then you wouldn't get to buy another cool tool.
