Pinion angle is the relationship between the transmission centerline and the pinion centerline.

Working angle = driveshaft angle




YEP




also and so do many more but they don't get involved because they are scared of being ridiculed by the naysayers. I could care less. and could also care less how many stupid movies they make or how many names they call. and I dam sure don't care how they set theirs up

That scenario is very correct, and it illustrates why you can not always set pinion angle off the driveshaft.

Under power, you want the front and rear U-joint angles to cancel each other out (pinion parallel to transmission). You do not want both front and rear yokes pointing up or both pointing down.

The purpose with it is to have both u-joints rotating with the same speed.
I know this wont make sence to many but my english is not good enough to explain.
Maybe someone else can?

no use, we ae not going to change their minds nor are we trying. their MO is to belittle or bash those who choose to have a different opinion.
