OK, here are the measurements. The driveshaft has 3/4 inch of play into the trans. The car is supported by all 4 wheels under load.

The trans is -3 degrees measured on the pan (front lower then rear)
the yolk is 0 degrees (measured on the u-joint cap when vertical)
the driveshaft side of the front u-joint is -2 degrees (front lower than rear, measured on the u-joint cap when vertical)
the driveshaft side of the rear u-joint is 0 degrees (level, measured on the u-joint cap when vertical)
the pinion side of the rear u-joint is 0 degrees (level, measured on the u-joint cap when vertical)
the rear 0 degrees
