OK i finally got back to it. putting the Toyota solid spacer in was kind of a pain. bad times hit the business i was working at, so i had to find another press. i lost the old crush sleeve, so i couldn't measure it. instead i installed the solid spacer with to many shims and measured the end play. the removed .004 past zero preload and checked. to light, so i pulled it apart again, ended up with .007 past zero preload to give it the right pinion bearing preload.
