Pinion alignment help

I want to make sure I align the pinion right on my Dana 44. It is +3 pinion. I have 2 thick spacers for the pinion and several thin shims that go behind a race. I don't think I've lost any spacers. The wear on the ring is right comparing to the shop manual pictures. Do I have the right amount of spacers?

Pinion alignment help

Well I got it together. Everything seems right. I put some grease on the ring and spun it. It has proper tooth contact. Now I just need a pinion oil seal, axle bearings, gaskets and oil.
