What is FFR's recommended initial pinion angle measurement when using the three link suspension setup?
Please give spec in degrees positive or negative relative to the transmission tail shaft.
Thanks,
John

Generally 2 degrees down (front of the pinion lower than the rear) from the driveline angle.

I will generally set the pinion angle to zero (vertical) in a car that gets driven aggressively. For a car that does more cruising, particularly highway miles, I would set it at 2 degrees up.

So Jim,
Are you saying that the rear axle should be rotated up 2 degrees? Thanks
