What's the driveshaft angle in relation to your transmission tailshaft?

Very good read here^^

I have a terrible vibration in my car after I swapped in the MWC Fab9 and Strange 3" chromoly driveshaft. Everything is setup to work together and the driveshaft has Spicer 1350 u-joints and a Strange Forged yoke. But at ~75-110 my car shakes like something is going to let loose, it shakes so bad that the hatch vibrates like crazy. I personally think that I have the pinion angle wrong, I tired moving it a few times, but I'm going to change it again before I get the car out in the spring.

I'm in the process of changing the clutch setup and I might try a Kevlar pilot bushing instead of the bronze bushing and see how that feels.

Also my car gets the vibs in 4-5-6 gears and if I put it in neutral it's still there

My car doesn't vibrate at all at 70MPH, but the thing feels like a ******* minivan, jolts all over the road, steering is slow and sloppy. Anyone know why this is? Lower control arms? Bushings? Tie rods?

NoHope, I had that problem. New Moog inner and outer tie rod ends fixed that for me. My car started jolting with every dip in the road like crazy, even at really low speeds like 10-15mph. With 145k on the stock tie rod ends I figured it's probably a smart idea to just do both inner and outer. Steering is tight and drives straight as an arrow now.
