Thanks for the replies. At present the tail shaft on my T-5 trans (on an 8-BA flathead) is six degrees down and the Maverick 8 inch rear is six degrees up making the two parallel. I'm thinking they both should be closer to 3 degrees or less. I have a bad vibration at about 2000 RPM's in any gear. Does that sound right?
