[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 430778, member: 18789"] On a YJ it typically gets further away from the axle the more pinion angle you have, since it’s mounted to the front of the tubes. The TJ is bad about that since they’re mounted on the back. I’ve never had any rub with shocks using proper 6-8° shims to make the pinion angle correct depending on what the application needed at the time to be correct. The shock bodies were always close but never could rub. The guys who keep pinion angle near stock and run tcase drops, seem to suffer from that a lot if their lift is high enough to make it a problem. [/QUOTE]
