2.2 degrees of pinion angle or 5.2?

2.2 degrees of pinion angle or 5.2? - 06/15/09 02:21 AM

I have caltracs and mono leafs on the dart and was checking the pinion angle and I currently have 2.2 degrees nose down with a 3 degree angle shim. Those with caltrac experience, should I remove the angle shim to get 5.2 degrees or leave well enough alone? It is a crappy cast aluminum shim and I will eventually trade it out for a billet shim, but what do you think?

i would get some good steel shims and run it at your 2.2. calvert told me to run between 2-4 degrees noise down. I ran my 65 at 3 and never had a problem. mopar65

I don't know what the actual is, but the difference between the trans and diff is 2.2 degrees nose down right now with the car pretty level.
