The poly bushings are firmer than rubber and are used for mainly street applications. The Roto-Joint is a way to get rod end performance with quietness. There is still some firmness but they make for a high performance street car situation. We also use them when we want smooth articulation for auto-x and road race.
For driveline angle, the quick and dirty number is around 2 degrees between driveshaft and pinion. The more complicated number is to know the transmission angle and make the pinion equal but opposite. You can also use the idea that the driveline should be straight at ride height but never completely straight (i.e. minimize driveline angle to zero, almost). The reality is the system is dynamic and even if you go totally zero, it isn't there for long. We use total zero in oval track quite a bit to maximize power transfer...

Should be about 2, but since your measurement is memory of 2 years ago, you need to find out for certain where it's at now Originally Posted by pggto
