I got 10 in- ibs for the pinion,alone
Total preload, I got was 12.5 in- ibs
Is that sound back lash when moving the ring gear?
Toyota calls for the carrier cover:
Sealant: Part No. 08833–00070, THREE BOND 1324
or equivalent
I can I use Red RTV or Loctite?
Should I install the gaskets dry or Indian Gasket Shellac?

the over haul kit, they gave two Intermediate cover gasket, two carrier cover gaskets?
Any reason why?

I've found from (various sources on) the internet that Loctite 242 (blue) is the Three Bond 1324 equivalent. I don't know the reliability of the places I got it from, but Loctite 242 does make sense for the application you are using if for.

I always prefer a gasket sealant (not RTV) with my gaskets, but that's just my preference.

You were asking two different questions right?

A Three Bond 1324 equivalent (Loctite 242) for the threads.

And if you should use gasket sealer for the gasket?

Just making sure you didn't use one for the other's application. That would be bad.
