Can anyone think of any problems with having the propshaft set at a slight angle when viewed from above in the tunnel?
Obviously the tunnel is parallel with the chassis, but I have to of set it slightly due to my engine/bellhousing/footwell size problems.
when I say problems I mean with SVA as well.
Cheers
From what I have read, the most critical thing is to have the flanges at both ends running parallel (sp?) to each other.
If you dont, destructive forces are generated as the joints accellerate and decellerate in terms of angular movement.
Thats wht CV joints (constant velocity) joint are called that - regardless of angle they have a constant motion velocity.
Spider type hardy spicer joints ARE NOT CV.
They will self destruct and throw the prop in your direction if they break, with unpleasant results.
