Differential Side Yoke Orientation ?
What is the correct orientation of the sides yokes on the differential? I believe they are supposed to be 90 degrees from each other, but as you can see mine is not setup that way they are probably 15-20 degrees off from a 90. The left yoke is vertical and perpendicular to the bench.

It really doesn't matter. When you are cornering the posi clutches will slip and let one axle turn faster than the other so the position of one axle relative to the other is always changing.

It makes no difference because where ever you put them the first corner will change the oreintation
Unless you have a locked diffy it will change
