Re: Camaro drivetrain alignment ???

I've heard a lot of horror stories about pinion angles . Then again like you there are guys running a lot more angle and never had a problem.
My brother in law , had a 1980 Toyota 4x4 , with huge mud tires and a big body lift , bottom of the door was about 4ft off the ground ,had to climb on the tire then the running board to get in. Mini Monster truck. Short little truck had severe angles on his drive shafts , ran on the freeway all the time Dallas to Oklahoma and Arkansas , never had any problems. Other than the law.

I think I'll just move the trans mount over the 1/2" to match the pinion and keep the motor offset to keep everything in a straight line Seems to be the simplest solution.

I'll have to wait till I get another weekend off before I can do anything

Come to think of it Gas Monkey is just a couple of blocks over from my work maybe I could swing by there and get their xpert opinoin.
