Hows the driveshaft going to be?
The Pinon is at a 0 degree angle (completely flat). The drive shaft is going to have a U-joint connecting to the pinion and a CV joint connecting to transfer case.

I am have some alignment issues but that's why paid for lifetime alignment at Firestone after the SAS.[/b]

I'm all ears... How could this cause problems? I don't claim to be an expert at this stuff. I've been researching as I go.

The reason I think the angle is set at 0 is because I used the old leaf spring plates to level out the axle when fabbing up the brackets and shock mounts. My thought was if I wanted to keep the same camber and caster that were used on the original Wagoneer I would need to make sure the axle was positioned under the X as it was under the Wagoneer. Since the spring plates on the axle were parallel to the ground I used them as a reference point and assumed the pinion was at a 0 degree angle from there. But, the pinion angle is whatever it was on the Wagoneer. Does that make sense?
