What is my pinion angle?

I measured these measurements from the drivers side of the car.

The angle on the tq arm, on the mount on the rear end is a +0.5 (to the right of zero), and the angle on the DS is a +2.5 (to the right of zero)

.5-2.5 = -2

is -2 my pinion angle? Or is it +2?

Re: What is my pinion angle?

The driveshaft and pinion shaft should form a \/ with the point towards the ground. As you have described it, appears thats what you have. The pinion shaft is pointed up +.5-deg, and the DS rises toward the front of the car at 2.5-deg.

You might have got more responses on the "Drivetrain" forum.
