This is an excellent gasket kit. A number of years ago someone gave me a set and it did make setting the carrier pre-load very easy. However the price of this kit was about $25. I would have to add this cost to every rear axle assembly I rebuilt. I prefer to try to keep the cost down. I find I can achieve proper preload with a combination of the two sizes Bratton's offer. .010 and .006. They sell for $1.25 each, and each job usually requires from two to six. The .005 carrier shims sell for $1.00 each
