Default Pinion Angle ??????


Okay it's been a while and this is what I have! Fron the rear plate of the TQ arm I have a -5.5 and on the end of the d/s I have a +3 so this makes a -2-5 correct? She does bite very hard so I might back it off to say a -1.5 or -2.0.

Thanks

What is the tranny side??
You shouldn't measure off the driveshaft at all.

Not sure where to mesure of the tranny side. I measure off the end of the d/s right before the u joint and again right under the pinion where the tq arm bolts go through. I'll do a search and see what you mean.. It's a little too much bite at it's current setting.

Thanks

You need to pull the driveshaft,measure the back of the tranny (near seal)Then measure at rear yoke(flat side where u-joints go through)Then you can set angle.
Make sure car is level when doing this.
If you need help,take these measurements then e-mail them to me.
