Next you check the front u-joint angle, must be 3 to 5 degrees, shaft down. Next check the rear u-joint, must match the front angle, but pinion down.
To clarify, the vehicle does not need to be leveled at all, just what ever the angle on the face of the output shaft is then the front end of the shaft needs to be 3 deg more toward the ground and on the rear the shaft needs to be 3 deg more tilted up than what ever the flange angle is? EDIT Am I doing this right?
