Yeah,you left out all the "needed" info.The front is easy(kinda),the rear is a whole new story.

no sye, just wanted to know what the angle should be?
So, you're talking about a stock rear driveshaft?
The angles themselves are of less concern than having the angles at the top and bottom match. If they match, you won't have any (or minimal) vibrations caused by the sine wave rotation speed changes.

Been that way for a few years now Scott. Thanks for noticing 
. Got tired of the petty political BS and cheap porn that the red side turned into. Among other things, when I realized it had been many months since I had actually seen anything in the Member's Forum that was related to 
business I knew it was time to let it slide. Left itself for awhile too, but obviously it drew me back...
Back on topic - without an SYE the upper and lower driveshaft angles have to cancel each other out. Actual angle numbers aren't as critical.

FYI Jim, for your adjustable control arm measurements, I would ditch the section dedicated to adjustable control arms without drop brackets....
Following the measurements for 7" when I did NOT have drop brackets (I have the RC ones now) I ended up with 13* caster.
Just a suggestion. The measurements from RE and RC are fine.
