I didn't think you could adjust any of the gears, just the pinion depth with those shims

i was reffering to the amount of end play for each of the individual gears that are on needle bearings.

091's do not shim the way type 1's do. The nut has no shims and end play should be ok without any shimming. I would guess .010 to .015 without looking it up. A little more probably will not hurt. I have never had a need to change the end play using either stock or Weddle gears and never had any problems. 3rd and 4th are the ones you usually have trouble with sometimes.
