Tell us what "total angle" is? Is this a gauge resting on the DS or ??

This was the gauge on the drive shaft. It was a phone app to measure angles, so I'm not sure how accurate it is, with the new Trex arms and 4 degree c-bushing plus my adjustable radius arm bracket, it points the diff yoke at 5.2 degrees up, and my yoke at the transfer case is 5.8 degrees up.

This link makes it so much easier than trying to type it all out. TW has been making new DS's for me since the late '90's. Hate to total up how many for a non-sponsered guy. :)

Questions after reading this- fire away!

nvrstuk, I have read that link, I think I should ask it a different why. After I installed the TREX arms, and they flex's the front driveline binds. When the suspension is at ride height it's at a steep angle and only has about 2 inches of drop before it binds. So wright now I'm trying to see what style of driveline I would need for it to work. I know the best option is to cut and turn ,but wright now I'm looking at high angle type of drive line for a fix. The Bronco will only see high speed in two wheel drive.
Thanks Dave

Go to Tom Woods web site, then the 3 bars and clicknon them & go to Technical Information, then scroll to Driveline angles (or similar)

I did read that ,I think I'll call because it doesn't say high angle, it says it for long travel.
Thanks Dave

I have a 5.5 sus. lift and bought the WH Extreme angle ( Tom Woods ). Faired pretty well, decent driving, no death wobble. It's probably from having super massive bent radius arms, gave me back some caster and relieved some of the angle.
