Those gouges are not good but can be smoothed out with a piece of emery cloth.  They may have been caused by some previous owner pounding in the race with a misdirected blow.  When you install the new race use a race install tool or gently tap it in with a punch.
If you have time throw the race in the freezer overnight which will shrink it enough to make installation a bit easier.

The crush sleeve can take a massive amount of torque to crush.   As Clay said, proceed slowly because once it starts it can go real  quick.

^^Funny the whole jeep is in a freezer, I used a torch to warm up the housing as the race did not want to go in. A little warmth and there were no more issues.

Alright so I got things set up and installed the carrier and used the marking compound to take a pattern and well..

Right now I do not have a dial indicator or calipers (yet), I just did this because my rebuild kit came with marking compound  ;D

Looking at the chart patterns its seems to be off a bit? Is it usable?

Drive is a bit close to the root and in some section its *toe* bias
