had a great time today and learned a few things  thanks to Dave and and everyone who attended. even had a the talk about pinion angle  sorry guys but he agreed with those of us about setting it off of the motor tranny center line fed the guys some good ole southern bar-b-q and had a good time. go to one if you get the chance it was well worth the money.

Was it a 1 or 2 day session? Thinking about going to one in Minot, ND in April. Apparently the 1 day session is a classroom deal, whereas the 2 day affair allows guys to bring their car for more of a hands on experience. Space limited though for the cars. codfish

Where is sixpackgut at 
Show him this next time 
no use he said he would be glad to prove it. he's going to put a racepak heat sensor on the front ujoint and do some teats. he just got racepak on board as a seminar sponsor. yes it was a 1 day seminar. we hope to do a 2 day next year

I hate pinion angle  If we took all the time wasted on this site talking about it, we could have started our own tranny shop and made up our own pinion angle check sheets.... Then we'd all be heros. Mike

why? neither one of you have a good argument on why to ignore the front ujoint.  I tend to lean towards somebody that has done extensive testing in this area. if you have some kind of hard proof I am all ears but to this point the best you guys can do is give some kind of 4 wheel drive reference

blablabla, when wedgie needed help. you couldnt tell him how to do it your way. all you do is say the same thing over and over but were completely unable to help him at at. Wedgie, go find those posts where Quicktree never really helped. i have laid out many scenarios which that way doesnt work. none of them being 4x4
also, who is Dave Morgan anyway? i never heard of him, does he walk on water?

you are full of bull wether he was smart enough to undestand or not is not my fault.  I sent him several pm's explaning exactly how to do it alomg with pics and diagrams that were posted. again I say you have no logic or explanation on why we should ignore the front ujoint. Dave also mentioned that your way was the way to do it back in the day before data was available. so you can attack him and his over 30 years of testing and working for somw of the biggest names in the biz if you like.

and further more the link you provided was straight out of Dave Morgans book copied and pasted by wolfracing or whoever and he addmitted that was confusing and wrong  he was refering to a chassis car where the drive shaft was inline with the motor tranny center line 
good, at least were on the same page
good, glad you finally understand how to set pinion angle
