im setting up a full width dana 60 under the front of my bronco. im using a c6 and a np205. my question is how to setup my pinion angle? if anybody else is running the same drivetrain pictures would be appreciated..
I had to read your question two times! Are you putting the 60 in the front like the post reads and it so with coil springs. If so and if it will see some street use, I would be more about the camber caster than the pinion angle..
There is some good information in there.
When we setup my D60 with the Cage arms we set it something like 6-7 degrees for good street manners. My pinion angle is terrible and would bind at rest. If I were to do it again I would turn the outer "C"'s for best of both worlds. http://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=156960
...Not to jack the thread, but one thing I noticed when reading that was the comment "use of highly-toleranced U-joints" and that auto part store u-joints may not meet the requirement. Is there anything to that statement? Are the replacement u-joints at NAPA or Autozone, etc. a lesser product than OEM u-joints?
Do the high pinion Dana 44s & 60s have a maximum pinion angle? Hi9s are only good for 15 degrees in the front due to oiling issues.
