when I did mine, I hooked the lca's then the shocks to keep the axle from trying to rotate when I was installing it.

i installed my 9 inch on my ws6 and it was nearly a direct bolt on. one thing I had to do is to notch the torque arm bracket so it clear the center section, and trim the tcs sensors so it could fit in the hole.

Was it difficult to find the angle of the drive shaft?

From BMR's website.

Set the pinion angle using the following method:
Load the rear axle by either setting the car on the ground or letting the car rest on jack stands positioned under the rear axle.
Place the angle finder on the driveshaft and record the angle. The driveshaft angle is negative if it slopes downward towards the rear of the car. The driveshaft angle is positive if it slopes upward towards the rear of the car.
Now place the angle finder on the rear end torque arm mounting plate and record the angle. The rear end angle is negative if it slopes downward towards the front of the car. The rear end angle is positive if it slopes upward towards the front of the car.
Add the two measurements. This is your pinion angle. (Example: -2 rear end angle plus -1 driveshaft angle = -3 degrees)
Turn adjuster to achieve the desired angle.
As a starting point, most F-Bodies seem to like the following initial settings: Automatics: 1-2 degrees negative Manuals: 2-3 degrees negative
Please refer to www.bmrfabrication.com to view the video for setting the pinion angle.
Once pinion angle has been set, tighten all jam nuts and rear bracket cross bolts.
