It doesn't matter what type rear end you are working with, you do not want anything less than a tight fit between the ring gear and it's carrier. Anything but a tight fit will produce a runout while the rear end is operating and advanced gear tooth wear and noise.

Get the correct carrier for the ring and pinion you are using or get the correct ring and pinion for the carrier you are using. Do not mismatch them. If you do you will not be happy with the result.
