Default Q on installing Adj. TA

OK, new Q... When looking from the pass side of the car my driveshaft angle that I recorded is 2 to the right of zero, and my rearend # is Zero, so does this mean I have -2 degs?

I'm in the middle of installing my UMI tunnel mount Adj. TA. The tunnel mount brakets that are used to connect to the TA have 2 sets of holes to mount the TA to. Which ones are recommend to be used the upper hole or the lower hole? I'm sure this has probably been asked a million times, and search isn't working for me.

Any other suggestions are welcome!

Thanks

I installed the UMI tunnel brace mount adj. TA. But i don't recall two sets of holes. The brace has one bushing in it, and the TA has one bushing. The two plates go on either side of those bushings.

My bracket is longer than that one and has another set about a 1/2" above those. I just used the lower ones anyways, looked more like the pic.



Also, when looking from the pass side of the car my driveshaft angle that I recorded is 2 to the right of zero, and my rearend # is Zero, so does this mean I have -2 degs?

Well I sent UMI an email and explain everything in detail, and there reply was to give them a call! Well, my work hours don't allow me to call them during there hours of bussiness. So any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I used the top holes it looked like these lined the TA in the original spot.
Going from the Lower holes to the upper increased my 60' times.
