Default 8.25 Differential Rebuild

Okay I am near the end of rebuilding my rear end. I am at the point of adjusting gear backlash and i have a dial indicator for that, but i need the paint to see how the gears are lining up and i have called every parts store in the are along with every dealership. Has any one done this using something else?
