Match the down angle of the transmission output shaft with an equal, but upward angle of the pinion shaft.
This LINK should help.
If the output shaft of the trans is lower than the input shaft of the diff, and the driveshaft slopes upwards (instead of downwards), that shouldn't be a problem; however, you have to watch maximum angles. The rule of thumb is to divide driveshaft length by 5 to get the maximum angle. I don't like more than 6* total.
You will find that others have different ideas . . .Last edited by Henry Rifle; 03-23-2008 at 08:03 AM.
