It's all about how much the pinion is going to climb. Mushy factory springs may need more angle than ss springs. But here's what you want while you're cruising down the road. I'm sure there's lots of math formulas you can use and get all frustrated but don't sweat it to much. If you screw it up you can throw a wedge shim in it, lol.

That makes since. I do plan on using ss springs later on. I can afford them yet but that is in the works. I actually have a set of them wedges because years ago when I installed my shackles I was told that I would have to adjust the pinion angle to accommodate for the lift of the shackles but I never did it did fine without them. Yes I know shackles are dumb I was 16 it I thought it was cool at the time! I cant believe they allow 16 year olds to drive we are really terrible decision makers at that age! Haha
