Setting pinion angle made easy. I have browsed a
lot of internet sites. Every site told me something different. Anything
from complicated to simple. In the end I was more confused than anything
else.
Since I installed a Moser rear-end housing, I realized
that the shock mounts were not on each side were not located in the same
place. Moser told me that the mounting holes were located in the proper
place and that was their only concern. The SSM bracket on the passenger
side would not install into the mount without being cut down a 1/4". This
put the passenger wheel 1/2" further back than the drivers. I had to start
shaving the drivers bracket down to get the rear-end housing in straight
before adjusting the pinion angle.

Purchase a magnetic angle finder. I bought mine at Canadian Tire for $27.00. Set the car up on blocks, see the "Reaer End" section, with all the weight of the vehicle resting on the tires. Measure the angle of the drive shaft. Measure the angle of the pinion. Add the two angles together. Make sure the pinion is angled downwards from horizontal. If it is angled up you will subtract instead of add. Adjust the pinion up or down until the two angles add up to 4 to 6 degrees.

Drill a 7/16" hole through shock mount and SSM mounting plate indicated by arrow. Drill another hole in the same place on the other end of the housing. Install 7/16" bolts and locktite into place. Pinion angle is set. Price $0.00
