Its at .06 now. Was going to install 2 degree wedges to start but maybe I should install the 4 degrees and see if it likes it to start. Anybody play with a pyrometer readings at the U joints?, checking temps with Pinion angle changes to determine best angle. Thinking is, closer the angle is under a load, the less heat is being generated by the U joint as it rotates.
