MWC set-up info
Finally got the rear-end in after chipping away over a few weeks. I have a few basic questions. On the front mount what hole are you guys using, the upper or lower? At the rear what hole in the LCA bracket do you use since there are 5. I don't have the adjustable LCA's which i think i need because the wheels aren't centred in the wheel well and my coil springs are going at a bit of an angle. Just starting to tinker with everything so i know there will be some trial and error. Anyone have a easy dumbed down version to how to set-up the pinion angle?

For the lower control arm bracket you want the LCA to travel slightly up hill to the chassis at ride height. This is all dependent what you are trying to achieve with the vehicle but that is a good basic starting point.
FIVEPOINT7 was nice enough to share our link to pinion angle. Thank you for that.

Yes i'm talking about the pivot point at the driveshaft loop. My car has aftermarket non-adjustable LCA's you suggest getting the adjustable? Especially since my wheel isn't centered?

It sounds like your lca's are pushing the rear backwards. Adjustables would certainly help that issue while allowing you to use the hole that keeps them as close to parallel with a slight incline from the rear to the body.
An angle measuring tool would be a good thing to have. Depending on your phone, there's an app for that.
