So I finally measured my pinion and driveshaft angles in order to buy shims and came up with some really odd results. My driveshaft angle is 16 degrees, and I got a measurement of 82.1 degrees on the plane perpendicular to the pinion (placed a cutting wheel flat against the rear axle yoke and measured its angle). By my math, this means the drive shaft and pinion meet at an 8.1 degree angle, so I'll need at least a 6 degree shim.
Is this right? I'm only running a 3.5" RE lift (closer to 4.5") and this seems to be a steeper angle than what most people see with this kit. Am I retarded or correct?
