Factory pinion angel? 82 K5

[jaredK5]

i sold my 1/2 ton stuff and a few weeks later i got my 1 ton stuff but the rear had no perches when i got it and the axle's are not in the same location (across town )as the truck so i cant do it the right way . I have an ORD flip in the rear and i thought that the factory angel would be fine because the flip points the pinion up any way .When i searched it out i found angels form 14* to 20* i am hoping for a definitive answer thanks

or if any one knows of a place that i could look to find the factory pinion angle a web site or something that would be great . thanks in advance jared

Go buy an angle finder for a few bucks and figure it out...

good news i already have a angle finder but I'm not really sure how to find the angle with out the axle.... i put it on the drive shaft or tail shaft and point it at what nothing ? I'm not an expert in this area so any assistance would be greatly appreciated
