    Go to Sears or similar and buy yourself a $ 10 angle finder. Place it on a flat machined surface of the rear end where the u joint enters it, and take a reading. Do the same to the transmission. You want about 3 degrees down on tranny and up same amount on the pinion. It can vary a little but that is pretty ideal.

    As for advice on the four bars, someone else will have to help there, I have never owned them. Here is a picture of what you want to buy.
