What's wrong with the DL angle? I'm guessing too steep. If so then you can rotate the axle(s) by either moving the the spring perches or using shims. Shims would definitely be the easiest.

about your driveline you need some shims to put between your springs and axle. that will help your pinion angle which will fix your driveline angle. then once you get doublers you can take the shims out and be good to go ...you can order the shims from skyjacker. or im sure you can get them at a local autoparts store

[DeadlyPeace]

If you're having problems with the rear DL angl then you will still need the shims there when you put in the dual t-case cuz angle will become steeper.

right right....duals will make your pinion angle worse in the rear...you might have to move the perches to get a better one

true...i was thinking front end

[DeadlyPeace]

Yeah I'm sure it's the front end he's having problems with, but I just thought I'd cover both since he didn't mention which one it was or if it might be both.
