trans seal - measured vertically 88 degrees (2?) UP . (you can go off the balancer if you can get on it for this measurement also)
pinion yoke (u joint cap) 5 degrees DOWN
so ... what is my pinion angle ?
-3
I would say 7* pinion angle. This is why if your transmission was 0* just for sake of trying to make things easy, then you raise the trans 2* you have added angle if you lower it 2* you would have 3* pinion angle. This is why I always use the drive shaft and the pinion yoke, the math is easier.
bzzzt! do not pass go, do not collect $200.
pinion angle is the angle of the tranny output shaft relative to the pinion shaft. if the tranny is 0, to have 0 pinion angle, the pinion has to be 0. if the tranny is 2 deg. nose up (higher in rear than front), the pinion has to be 2 degrees nose down (higher in the rear than the front) for pinion angle. his pinion shaft is 3 degrees nose down more than the 0 point, so -3 (3 degrees nose down) is correct
