Pinion to driving gear backlash, 0.004" minimum. I'd try to not go greater than 0.006".

If by "end play" you mean rear axle shaft end play, 0.002" - 0.004". Adjustment is NOT at the backing plate but via shims behind the inner race. Since each axle shaft is held in position by opposing tapered roller bearings independent of the other axle shaft, unlike the later rear axles you must set the shaft end play separately for each axle shaft.
