Backlash, contact pattern, bearing preload.

If it's for racing it needs to be perfect or it's going to break.

You need to start with gear set-up paint. Grease isn't going to cut it.

Read this.

I just skimmed the linked article, but there's A LOT of info there! Looks like a nice guide. Yes, I agree: there's a lot more to it than putting some grease on the gears.

It's not going to vibe. But it can shatter teeth.... Especially under racing conditions

I'm not giving you a hard time. Just providing info to get it done correctly.

You need the correct tools and take your time to do it right. I couldn't imagine slapping it all in there and "racing" with it.
