Let's talk pinion angle

It's harder to get with no snubber IMO. I like snubbers but regardless the two working angles have to cancel each other out and the tailshaft moves in all directions under load. So when doing pinion angle you should also verify the engine isn't pulling and lifting on the driver's side too much and the trans mount is in good shape otherwise you may be chasing a vibe from it moving sideways and adding to that working angle rather than the up/down plane of the pinion.
