Pinion Angle

This seems to be a big deal but how were the cars from the factory set??? I dont remember any of them having any shims on the springs... or do you only worry about pinion angle when modifying the car?

the factory had to have some kind of jig to weld the seats onto the axle tubes at the right angle to match the springs used , so the only time you "should" have to worry about it is if you change the springs or diff housing
