Put in traclink, need to know pinion angle
Re: Put in traclink, need to know pinion angle I'd not go over -2 degrees. Preferably (if it were me), I'd stay around -1 degree (give or take .5 degrees) and tune from there. If you go much past -2 degrees, you will start to bind the U-joints and can cause driveshaft (U-joint) problems....good luck!

ended up dumping that thing. Much better now that I'm back to stock. Gave it to my buddy, he owns a shop and is having the same issue. I'm glad I gave it away, although I could have sold it, he's a good friend and helped me out when I REALLY needed it. It's only right that I give him my problem...

jk Interesting. I was considering purchasing one of those. I had heard of similar problems from a few users and decided that I'd pass until this is no longer street driven. Let us know if you get it worked out.
Ussing a silod pivot like that requires the angle to be set perfect for no vibrations.When setting up my SPOHN setup I was getting bad vibration setting it up the way people said on this board.I finally found a link explaining pinion angle.To zero out my angle I have the rear actually + 4 degree's..There is absolutely no vibration at any speed now.
