9" regear help

I cant seem to get the pattern centered on both sides
if I go thicker than a .010 pinion shim the drive side starts moving to the outer edge of the ring gear and the coast is at the extreme inside.

any ideas?
.010 pinion shim .011backlash drive side

.010 pinion shim .011backlash coast side

No pinion shim .009backlash drive side

No pinion shim .009backlash coast side

Ended up going with no shim and opened up the backlash to .012
Cleaned the pinion and re ran the pattern and it looks better than that.
Got her all together and runs smooth and quiet as a mouse.
First regear down now I just have to do the d-44 next.
