probably be easier to pick an assembly with the gears you need, by time you get all the proper shims, crush collar and swap the bearing shims back and forth its pretty much not worth it. I can do these all day long and choose to just use one that works.

It's not actually that bad if you do them all the time and have a handfull of extra shims and enough beer to get it all set up with a good pattern, then put a load on it and check the pattern and realize that it all changes and do it again...probably a 1 case job with all the extra parts hangin around.
