Dude that cleared it up major. Right to the point and good instructions. All these other videos on CZcams are crap.
Glad it helped!!
Well presented man. I've seen it so many times where some guy on a forum or group would be telling a guy that they needed to add a degree shim on a leaf pack after lifting or lowering a truck, then the guy wonders why it's vibrating and wearing out u-joints. A few measurements of angles and getting things where the need to be is the right approach.
That was very informative thank you . I want to hear that engine run and drive that truck looks very awesome
Thank you! This is the best explaination I've found. Tell us what happens if you drive a vehicle with the angles off and vibrating at 65 mpn?
Thanks bro. Really appreciate the help with my shaft 😉😂✌️ just upgraded front and rear on my jk to double carden joint from adams driveshafts
Good job man keep following you from Jordan
Nice to know, thanks buddy.
I hope you're gonna show some footage with your trucks when the snow comes down😎
It's about timing, if you have a vibration then the joints are out of time. Time is adjusted by angles and even quantities of joints. The front axel shaft ujoints always chirping the tires in tight turns is the acceleration and deacceleration required as the joint rotates. There is a great video on ujoints and their timing. So 3 joints will be out of sink via the single phase joint if the pinion is not in line with the shaft.
Good job , watching you Chanel from Mozambique , Africa country
I feel like I dont need to go at automotive school i just watch this channel 😁
Hi. On the front drive shaft with live axle I have come across a issue. Do I favour the castor angle over the pinion angle with a double cardan drive shaft? With the castor angle at 5 degrees for good steering it leaves the pinion angle out by 3.5 degrees with a 2 inch lift. I have short drive shafts. Good thing I only engage the front while going slow when off roading. Cheers Phil.
Good info
Thank you!!!!
Nice one
About to re do my peterbilt driveline.. 2 piece between transmission and axle with a mid ship between the differentials.. do the axle angle and rear of the driveline off transmission have to be pointed both up sat 2 degrees or can one be up and other down? And do you know about what the midship should be set at
Probably never gonna need this info. But love it.
Maybe a little off topic but what clutch did you end up using with your swaps? Stock one or did you use an upgraded one to handle more torque
TDI swap? I used a southbend in the Tacoma and a lce dual comp in the red truck
Do you put electric power steering or pump? i love the 22r videos
Umm pinion angles are to be measured at static ride height. You should have had that truck sitting on the ground. The weight of the truck on the ground is what I've always been taught. Total angles should be with in 1 degree opposite operating and never even. Example trans down 3 degrees axle pinion up 3 degrees as they will cancel each other under load to prevent vibration also keep joints lubricating itself.
With the 3 link properly set up the pinion angle relative to the ground won’t change throughout the travel, and the transmission side to the ground won’t either. The angles going thought the u joints themselves will change but they will still be matched, so in this case it can be set in the air just fine. I would double check it on the ground, but more to make sure that the U joint angles aren’t zero at ride height. With measuring the angles, you want them on the same plane, so 3° trans down and 3° pinion up are the same angle, since they’re pointing in opposite directions the ‘negative angle’ of the tranny is only because it’s pointing backwards, if that makes sense
@@treykish Somewhat agree as i've not dealt with 3 link, Don't think He mentioned this was for three link only adjustment. I did mention 3 up and 3 down. Still would think pinion angle will change base on suspension load weight of truck on the ground but maybe not on this truck as rear weight is basically not a whole lot.
@@treykish exactly! As the axle moves up, the pinion stays at the same angle so the transmission and axle will always be at the same angle
You have no business commenting on it if you know nothing about 3 link on a low profile riding truck.... no hate js.
@@freedom_dispenser Good grief didn't know he was speaking just on 3 link relax didn't come here to argue. He just started talking about angles and then just started adjusting th 3 link. learned differently through the automotive school I attended.
Man my engine is sitting at 5.1° with my TH400+GearVendors. I am replacing that mess with a TKX 5 speed. How would you suggest getting my BBC in a '72 Monte at a lesser angle? Thanks for any words of advice!
What's the best way to correct this on a 83 Chevy lifted 6in? My angle is bad and I heard shims are not the way to go
greetings small things that make a difference well explained greetings and here supporting the channel with a like
Y u say greetings 2times ?
Do your Toyota Pickups have HVAC? If so do you have experience with installing them? I have a 1994 Pickup SR5 4x4 that didn’t come with factory A/C. My mechanic said best bet is buying a donor car.
Hola Algien puede decirme como se llama esa herramienta digital y para que se utiliza, ,,,porqué veo deque la sostiene en los cardanes...vendisiones.
Chevy s10 extended cab with 4 inch lowering blocks need what - well its a “double-cardan” style U-joints style so a 3/4 inch riser for transmission and 1 inch riser under the center support bearing is needed. But my question is, the blocks need to be at an angle right? Maybe I have 3 inch drop blocks I'll have to check again, but if it's a 3 inch drop block, I should have to use a 4° angle shim on top of the drop blocks with the thinner side of the shim going toward the front of the truck on both sides right? Can't go any higher or if I hit a bump the driveshaft will hit the floor of the cab unless you hammer out some of the floor of the cab. But a 4° angle shim should work for 3 inch and 4 inch drop blocks correct? Man I hope this all makes sense lol! 😂
What do you recommend for 6 inch lift on Toyota Tacoma 2wd you sound like you know what your talking im all ears
Help!? Have a 78 Toyo pickup automatic. Need help with shifter!? Shifter moves freely doesn’t lock and doesn’t have original lever with button!! What am I missing to lock into gear!?
This topic always confuses me a bit. So from 0 degrees was your transmission pointing down 3.8 degrees? If so you turned your axle up from 0 to 3.8 degrees?
Yes
-3.8 and +3.8
Idol, mitsubishi strada 1995 4x4..turning or steering angle problem, how to improve
Hola me podrías decir si se pueden cambiar los sellos de las válvulas del motor toyota 22R sin aflojar los tornillos que sujetan la cabeza es decir si se pueden recorrer lateralmente los balancines para quitar los resortes
Gracias
Venden un tapon que va en lugar de la bujilla para meter aire al motor y valvula no cai
@@hondaservicecenter De acuerdo muchas gracias por tu orientación
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🔥🔥🔥🇵🇷❤️
I actually had absolutely no idea this was even a thing. Just to be clear, let’s say you are changing or upgrading to a different driveshaft, should you always do this measuring procedure? I can’t say a changed driveshafts while working with my father, but if you were to ask me how do you change a driveshaft I would answer “u pop off a few bolts, add the new one and done”
Good one
You need at least .1 degree of angle otherwise you will wear through ujoints
You have to set pinion angles at ride hight. Bad info man.
Needs done with the car/truck sitting on its own weight not with rearend hanging for the most accurate measurement
YOU HAVE NO WEIGHT ON SUSPENSION. SHOULD BE SITTING ON TIRES WHEN YOU MEASURE ANGLES
