I dunno, that angle doesn't look bad at all. I've seen worse. If you don't have vibration I wouldn't worry about it.

Unless its worse than the pic portrays? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Dan,

I agree. It doesn't look bad at all. The vibration is driving me nuts. With the stock driveshaft I had a TERRIBLE vibration at 80-90 mph. I mean it would shudder the entire undercarriage.

I had a new thicker driveshaft made that was 1" longer. (cause the yoke was sticking out at least an inch)

The terrible vibration went away and now I have a minor vibration (like that of a pinion angle being off) at 40-60 mph. I had that same new driveshaft rebalanced and now the vibration starts at 50mph and goes till about 70mph.

I have no idea why I would be having a problem with the same kit that everyone else has. There are no adjustments (eg, shims, torsion bars, etc, etc) to make any difference for the rear driveshaft pinion angle.

I don't know what else to do but have a new driveshaft with CV joints made.

Mark
