I have never messed with drive line angles. No with that said how do you measure the angles and what dregree should you stay in? Do you try to stay as close to stock as possible? I.E. When lifting rig.

With a standard u joint set up, you want your pinion angle to offset your output angle on the t-case. If your output on your t-case is 3degrees down, you want your pinion to be 3 degrees up. If you don't have an angle finder, you can take a coat hanger and bend it to match the angle from the t-case to the driveshaft, then turn the coat hanger upside down and make your pinion to driveshaft angle match it, you should be ok. On a dual cv, you want the pinion pointing about at the t case output and t-case can stay where it is at.

I get it, I'm a Jeep owner and ad-block detectors kinda stink but ads are needed on this site. This is a CJ site, all the ads are set for autos (some times others get through.) I cannot make them just for Jeeps but I try.

Please allow ads as they help keep this site running by offsetting the costs of software and server fees.
