Default Half-Shaft Angle...

What is the angle of the Half-Shafts, with the car sitting on the ground ?
Is it parallel to the ground ?
Help !! :confused:

I sincerely hope not.

Now that I have made my smart assed remark....

I went and measured my 96. They are about 3 degrees off horizontal, wheel end is low.

I forgot to mention, mine is a Convert with stock springs with no suspension mods that would effect ride height. The car doesn't look like it has sagged in it's 8 years, but I haven't measured ride height.
