Dear africapackard:
Okay, Loctite is good.
But before you put it together see if you can rustle up some gear contact pattern paint around town. Then using your hand to load the ring gear have someone turn the pinion.
A good pattern should be in the middle of the teeth and the backlash should be .005 -.008 or small enough to grind a piece of heavy paper. You can get tooth contact patterns on line, but here part of the Dana manual.
