8.8 swap

I removed my original axle and measure it with an angle finder. With the axle upside down I put a level on the spring perch and leveled it. I then put the angle finder on the pinion flange, it was -7* which would become positive if I flipped the axle back up right. My transmission measured at -2* so in theory +2* on the axle would have aligned drive line angle. I think I settled right at +4* for the perches and welded them. So far in the car I have no issues. It’s hard to explain it. Use your original measurement on the the original axle if you still have it. I’m sure others will chime in.
Thank you that sounds about right. That is exactly what I was gonna do. Just go off my old one.
