Can't help with factory angles but I reckon you should weld in caster angles dependant upon tyre size & lift. The bigger the tyre you want more positive caster
Factory I think is 1.5+ or something like that? but for say a 35" tyre you want 5-6+ degrees . The bigger tyre just wants to wander more on the road
Similar with pinion angle , set it up with the lift in mind although if your running factory single UJ's you want to keep the transfercase output flange and the pinion flange within 3 degrees of each other to avoid vibrations

Thanks,
Factory for the 40 series was 1 degree. However with the addition of power steering I've been advised to go with about 3* or so. Just wondering what stock is so as to know how it will relate to the angle of the pinion.
