I am up for drags on Friday night though...assuming we ever get my pinion angle set correctly. Everyone seems to have a different story or understanding on how to set the ****ed thing

DavidM

DavidM

Bob join me in showing the cars. I have decided to register on Sat morning and enter the show. Might be a good way to make some new members and meet some new peeps. Come on bob $50 bucks and your set. Perhaps we could park next to each other for the clubs sake do it man!!!

Guys, I really need help on this pinion angle thing. Can anyone help a brother out? We keep adjusting it incorrectly I think. I'm sure Benji is tired of seeing me.

DavidM

Jeff I know I read somewhere on here or on a web site that the optimal angle is like neg 3 deg. I'll try to find where I saw or read it. If I remember right it was a reputable source. Is benji using an angle meter or measuring device of some kind??

DavidM

Check this article its pretty comprehensive.

I like the article but I get all confused when people start saying -3 and +3. I think -3 means the flange end is pointing nose down and +3 means nose up. If that is the case then my transmission flange should be nose down and my pinion flange should be nose up right? God this is so confusing for me. I'm sure I sound like an idiot.

I wish I could adjust it right now. Dave could I drive over and get your help real quick on this tonight?

DavidM

Step number 10 on the steeda write up says with the one piece drive shaft you need to measure the verticle mounting surface of the transmission bell housing with the angle inclinometer then measure the pinion flange angle and subtract one from the other for the optimal angle.
