Yes, thats a vertical view, imagine viewing horizontally, when the axle is moving up and down.
It does however question the position of the diff.

Think 20 25 degrees total is the max normal, any more and it will still work, just shorten the life span a bit.

My drive shafts are quite off 50mm in about 500mm.
Should be okay, although i`ve yet to find out!.
The frontr drivesafts from a xr4x4i go from the sump to the hubs so they have 50mm (at least) in 3-400mm, ang they work okay.

AFAIK it is actually wrong to have a perfectly aligned situation. Think I have read something about that before on this forum.

the rear drive shaft inner joint should, when the car is static and has no load, be an inch above the outer.
