This is probably one you'll have to contact Yukon for.

FWIW, when I did my 5.13s back in '04, I found the best contact pattern to be at .008" BL (and that's when they only listed a spec of .011-.016") The Ford factory book lists a spec of .008-.015" so I ran with it and it's been great (no noise, etc.).

I saw that in the ford book witch just added another spec

i honestly dont remmeber what my backlash was. im using PORC $.88 gears, but i cant rember the spec i used, i think it was within the 5 cut range though

wish i could be of more help
