Do this All angles are measured on the drivers side of the car.

1. engine/trans is on ____ angle and it heads down in the back. Meaning the crankshaft is higher than the tail shaft

2. The Driveshaft (if not there use a string or a piece of wood to go from the center of the output shaft to the center of the pinion) is at a ___ angle and it heads down in the back. The connection at the transmission & driveshaft is higher or lower than the connection at the rear diff to driveshaft. Does water from from the front driveshaft down to the rear or would it run from the rear to the front towards the engine

3. the pinion is at a ______ angle heads up or down in the back. The driveshaft and pinion create a V or a /\ ?. Would water placed on top of the diff run behind it or onto the driveshaft.

Base on this we will figure out the rest.


To give you an idea my angles were close but still caused a vibration and the aluminum bigger driveshaft fixed this. Mainly because the driveshaft was very level and caused a jump rope effect not to mention the driveshaft shop high speed balanced my new one.
