What year? If it is early '32 you might try Tom Endy since he is the Model A rear end expert and they are basically a Model A rear end.

It's a mix of parts. But it's a '47 truck center with '36 bells. I need pick someone's brain or have setup the pinion and side bearing preload.

As Charlie said, Tom Endy is the guru on model a rear ends. See if this helps you at all.

The Hot Rod Works in Idaho might be of help.

That's the best artical/write up I've seen on rebuilding rear ends for our cars.
I used it on my rebuild of a '46-'48 rear axle.
