pinion angle

redrider · 02-09-2001, 04:23 PM

I have adjustable upper rear control arms that I want to set at the best pinion angle possible to reduce driveline vibration on my aluminum driveshaft. I have to reinforce the upper torque boxes first as they are torn from the torque from my 347.

Please let me know the best angle setting.

Thanks

With SSM bars and adj. uppers, I set mine at 4 degrees. Works fine for street and strip.
