if you adjusted it without checking the play at the gears it is hard to tell. 
 you need to take the cover off to be sure.  at least in a fc you can do it 
in the vehicle. you may luck out and get away with it but usually you need to 
adjust the pinion end play also to get a correct wear reading. check out the 
service manual. when i found play in the 65 van from hell the bearing was bad 
when i took it apart to l,ook..it would not have lasted long. i think there are 
pictures on the website.
