U upnover Member May 17, 2014 #1 I am trying to get my pinion angle correct. Right now I am about at 5*, this takes into account my garage slope. Does this look about right. I am about at 4" of lift.

Can't see the pic but if this is the rear with a new u-joint style shaft, you want the pinion in line with the drive shaft. If this is a front shaft, you need to set your caster and not concern yourself with pinion angle.
