I believe that right way to do it is to use either your current ("matched by wear pattern") ring/pinion combo or get the ("matched by wear pattern") ring/pinion along with the LSD carrier and install all these parts into your housing. Either way, I'd regard it as a situation where you're setting up a new ring/pinion relationship and treat it accordingly. With this in mind and if I were doing it, I'd hope that my current ring/pinion presented less wear than the "new to you" ring/pinion, thus (probably) getting you out of having to set pinion depth (I'm assuming you'd set the axle up yourself). You probably will do this anyway but I'll mention it, replacing the clutch pack will be a given unless there is a compelling reason to do otherwise. My 3 cents. Edit: Experience and life have taught me that the numerically higher an axle ratio is, that the more critical they are about being set up correctly if you don't want to hear them howl.
