[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 438364, member: 18789"] I’m not sure you’re understanding how all this works. A 3 degree shim backwards will not be proper at all for a slip yoke eliminator and double cardan. A slip yoke eliminator and double cardan needs the pinion pointed up at the transfer case. But not up as high as it was pointed. You also don’t need to keep measuring the driveshaft angle, that doesn’t really tell you anything useful except for the angle the joints are operating at. The important thing is angles need to be parallel if running a stock shaft, or you need to get the pinion straight to the driveshaft if using a double cardan shaft. As I said, stock shaft won’t work very well and so you should use the slip yoke eliminator and double cardan, like you’re planning to. In that case, you need to install the SYE and DC shaft, and evaluate your pinion angle at that point. Installing a 3 degree shim backwards is not the right move for SYE and DC. [/QUOTE]
