Good call. Yes, I've seen upwards of .016" backlash on used gears as well. While .019" is a litttle excessive, it's not terrible. The tips on the ring gear are still flat and not sharply pinted. I hear some of the Ultra4 and Desert cars are setting them up a little loose initially now to help deal with heat issues. Setting them up as a new set of gears was probably a good idea and shouldn't pose any issues.
