Re: Pre-LS swap questions

Hey guys, I'm finally about to the part you've all been waiting for. I finished my suspension this weekend and by the end of the month I'll have the motor and tranny in. I just wanted to post up some pics so you know I'm still working and I also wanted to ask a question.

Pics first

Rear suspension is done


Chassis on the ground ( its level now but will have a rake when I get weight on the front)


And of course the tranny I told you all about.


So my question.... I set my pinion angle at 4 degrees up. The rear leaf kit wanted 5 degrees angle and I read 3 lots of places. What have you guys used? I asked this over in the 47-59 board but figured I might as well ask the LS guys too. I have the perches tacked in now so if I screwed it up I can still change my pinion angle.
