The ring and pinion will have a visual wear pattern without bluing it. That's how it has been running. Wouldn't hurt to check it now that it is back together.

You changed no shims or bearings do pinion froth should still be fine.

And LSD only alters the backlash and bearing preload on the ring gear. Only side cover needs to come off. Pinion depth should be unchanged. You can put the box back together and do LSD later.

Did you measure the loaded stack height on the synchros? Been lots if inferior out of spec replacement synchros floating around in recent times. Oem is best.
