quick & short: it depends


I have two angle finders, a plumb bob and a protractor, but I don't have your Jeep. Is buying or borrowing an angle finder out of the question too?

Buy 1 (one) 99 cent protractor from grocery store.
Use 1 (one) length of twine, string, thread, floss, etc.
Use 1 (one) nut, bolt, matchbox car, wedding ring, socket, floppy disk, spark plug, door knob, candy cane, fork, etc.
Put the string through the hole in the protractor, tie the weight to the other end of the string.

You now have a 1 (one) dollar angle finder.

That would be optimum for the driveshaft but you wont have any castor to speak of,its always a compromise.
