Alright guys I have another question with probably a simple answer. So as most of my issues have been with this project I'm trying to get everything set and in order before my buddy comes over to do any welding for me. Getting any of his time this time of year has been tough so when i do i need to try to be as ready as I can be.  Really need to learn myself but know enough to know this isn't a project to teach myself  on.  I have a new rear axel housing that i cleaned up to throw my 3rd in. Right now i have 4deg shims in the rear as it sits but that still isn't quite enough and would prefer to go ahead and do it correct. I ordered a new set of peaches and have a good idea at what angle they need to be set at when installed. But just for mocking up without pulling the whole rear end apart yet im trying to eyeball it on the new housing. My question is from the factory am i correct that the spring perches are sitting at 0 or parallel to the ground?  Which would put my pinion angle at about 9 deg.  And with my 2 piece rear cv shaft am I still shooting for about 1 -2 deg. Difference from my drive shaft ( 2nd part behind center bearing) Which i think with a quick look right about 15deg  pinion angle.
