how to setup rear ive been reading some threads and see alot that say you should setup the rear with weight on the axles... now i dont remember how i did it (over a year ago) but its not too difficult to just put the bolts back in place
so what exactly should i be doing to get the rear setup perfectly? i have adj tq arm, non adj lcas, and a 3rd gen 12 bolt, i plan to get some drag shocks and an adj panhard rod soon...
would it be benificial to just leave the car on the ground, remove 1 part and put it back on? or is there a special sequence or way to get it right?

You can install everything with the car in the air on jack stands and then put it on the ground to tighten everything and check your pinion angle. You are going to what to set you pinion angle at -2. Here's a good video I found that tells you how to get your pinion angle right where you want http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5V6gTrFHK4k

ya thats what ive been doing all along, never tightened anything with the rear dangling, and pinion angle is set to -1.5 (cant get it spot on at -2)
so ive been doing this right all along, guess im more of a doer than a reader lolol
