To calculate the operating angle for the transmission output to front propeller shaft (A) (Fig. 4), subtract front propeller shaft angle from the
transmission output shaft. To calculate the operating angle for the front to rear propeller shaft (B) (Fig. 4), subtract the front prop. rear propeller
shaft angel from the front. To calculate the operating angle for the rear prop. shaft to pinion angle (C) (Fig. 4), subtract the pinion angle from the
rear prop. shaft angle. The operating angles can be adjusted by moving the center carrier bearing up or down. The center bearing brackets, listed
above, are available in a variety of heights. The working angles should be adjusted to provide the lowest angle possible for the output shaft to front
propeller shaft, front propeller shaft to rear propeller shaft and rear propeller shaft to axle pinion. The angles must be below 3 degrees but must
have a minimum angle of 1/2 degree to provide for universal joint lubrication. Determine which direction you need to move the center bearing to
optimize the angles and install the appropriate bracket to obtain the minimum working angle, but still maintain at least 1/2 degree to assure that
there will be some movement in the U-joint bearings (Fig. 4).
