I am almost done building my 8.8 and the only thing I am not clear about is the correct angle I need to set pinion angle at. I have about 4.5" of lift all around and still have stock drive shaft with no SYE YET, so if anyone knows this please let me know.

thanks!

go to tech info.

then to driveline geometry 101

 

couldn't find any tech section.

 

There is a write up somewhere Can't remember where google it.

 

http://www.fourwheeler.com/projectbu...wap/index.html or this one http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f11/8...ite-up-530202/

 

tech link at top of page.

 

i would just rest the leafs on the perches with the weight of the car on it and line the pinion with the same angle as the driveshaft

 

OK the technical answer is the same as the out put on your t-case. YOu basically center axle.. place perches on axle and set vehicle weight down on it.. then use a jack to rotate pinion angle to correct.
