Re: Rotating knuckles for better d-shaft angle

got the welds out that hold the knuckles on. i got the degrees of angle of the spring perches and of the races that hold the knuckle bearings...same angle. my plan for monday is to build a jig that holds the the axle level and holds the pinion at about 13 degrees. then i will clamp the axle down so it wont turn when i twist the knuckles. i will put my angle gauge on the race and twist till i get it to the original angle. this way im sure everything is lined up perfect. cant wait. so all together my pinion will be rotated up about 8 degrees. should be perfect as before my drive shaft angle was at 25 and my pinion angle was at 5
