Gotcha, I thought that may have been you. I'm actually in Dover, IN and my Dad's shop is in Yorkville, IN.

I love everything about it Brandon. The color fits the style perfect.

We worked over the weekend to get the bed and tailgate painted. The underside and wheelwells are coated with a stoneguard material. It turned pretty well, a few runs hear and there in the clear, but overall, nothing that sanding and buffing won't take care of.

So I measured for a driveshaft last night and in the process (actually prior to measuring) we made some adjustments to the pinion angle. As best I can measure with a digital angle finder, my engine/transmision is around 2.5 degrees down and my pinion is about 3.5 degrees up.

I know that they are technically supposed to be exactly opposite. My question is will I have issues If I don't get the pinion angle to exactly 2.5 degrees up, which I should be able to do if needed................and, is 2.5 degrees enough to not have u-joint issues?

Thanks,

Brandon
