When I installed a 9 inch Ford Rear into my Mid American Stock car Metric chassis, I fixed the pinion angle by enlarging the front holes on the upper trailing arms and and welding 7/16 washers. They were a couple thou over 1/2 inch. I put he rear where it was at ride height then using an angle finder set it where it needed to be and tacked them in.Then I took them off and welded around Try it out,
