    pinion angles

    :stupid:No, Crusin Ga. , the reason the angle is off when you add length to the shakle, is because that rotates the pinion up, and to bring it back down you put the thick end of the shim twards the shackle, that applies to the front or rear, except if you have reversed the shackle in front, (...
