Just installed 4.56 G2 gears in my 8.25 rear diff in my 97 XJ.. I have some pattern pics after install and would like someone with experience tell me what you think before I run them. Specs are G2 4.56 gears, pinion had 4.125 printed om them, removed a .024 shim and installed a .025 shim, backlash is set to .005. after these specs i ran a pattern and this is what i got, anyone with gear experience have any input on the pattern.

That and you need to open up the backlash by at least a couple thousands of a inch. Try to apply more pressure on the ring gear for the pattern check.
