Hey all, I'm finally swapping my 2-piece drive shaft for a DSS, and I'm trying to figure out this pinion angle situation. BTW, I understand the DSS has a joint that reduces the problems associated with an off pinion angle, but still...
As a threshold issue, do I need to touch the pinion angle if the ride height is not changing?
If I do have to adjust the angle, I'm honestly not 100% on how you do it with my configuration. I have a Cortex torque arm. What's the proper way?
Also, what angle am I shooting for? Note the car has a full track suspension, so the rear end is not going to be dancing around very much...(meaning we don't as much need to account for what is it, wind up?)
Also, even if the angle is less of an issue given the joint on the driveshaft, does speed amplify pinion angle problems? If so, then that's relevant here, as the car will see 130+ mph often.
