Use the Driveline Operating Angle Calculator to find the operating angle of each u-joint in your drivetrain. Select the number of shafts in your application. For each of the following values, …

The Angle formed by the pinion shaft centerline and the centerline of the driveshaft is called the rear working angle. These 2 angles should be within 1/2 ° of each other.

The optimal angle of operation for a driveshaft coupling is 1.0°-3.0° with a minimum 0.5° and a maximum of 5.0°. If the coupling angle of the shaft exceeds 3.0°, the life of the universal joint …

Aug 25, 2021 · To minimize the confusion around measuring the driveline operating angle, TREMEC has come up with a slick smartphone application to measure and compute the …

Take the guesswork out of your chassis setup with this handy 3-step tool! By using your smartphone as a measuring device, the app will calculate each u-joint angle and provide an …

Jul 30, 2025 · The Driveline Angle Calculator calculates the absolute angular difference between two connected components—most commonly the transmission output shaft and the pinion …

Take the guesswork out of your chassis setup with this handy 3-step tool! By using your smartphone as a measuring device, the app will calculate each u-joint angle and provide an …

Oct 16, 2024 · This calculator measures the angles of each component in your drivetrain—transmission, driveshaft (s), and axle (s)—to help you determine the proper U-joint …

Select the number of shafts in your application. For each of the following values, enter angle (to the nearest 1/4 degree) and slope (up or down).

The math is just finding the difference between slopes to figure out your joint angle. For example, if your driveshaft slopes down 20° and your transfer case slopes down 5°, the angle is 15°.
