colin if you replace the bearings on the carrier and pinion, the gears need to be reset.

don't listen to this fool...take the shims out and put 1/2 of them back in...the bearings will be tighter so they'll make up for the lack of shim....AWESOME!!!

Everyone's jeeps will come out without a scratch. Meanwhile, a tree branch will fall on top of my Honcho while it sits broken in a parking lot. Further setting me back.

What is the point of setup bearings then?

I've never rebuilt an axle but aren't they used so you can easily put in/pull out the carrier while you're figuring everything out? I would assume all the final shimming/measuring is done with the new bearings?
