Drive Line Angle

[CSI XJ]

How do you find out the angle of your drive shaft transfer case, etc.? I have 4 1/5" of lift and I am going to install a SYE and will have to shim up the rear end but don't know how to measure any of this.

Buy a mechanics protractor, measure your driveshaft angle and your pinion angle.

Where might I find a mechanics protractor? and how much does one run?

Sears has them... so do most hardware stores. They're magnetic based and look something like this...
