If you run a double double cardan driveshaft in the front, how do you set the pinion angles? Same as one with two single ujoints?

double double.. what are you working on? got any pics?
think that you would make the xfer yoke and the axle yoke at the same angle (same way as with no cardan joints)

Correct.

But, why would you want to run a double-double as you put it?

I can't imagine getting a ZJ / WJ to flex at those extreme angles in which you could utilize that kind of setup anyway...

For front axles if someone doesn't want to cut and rotate their pumpkin maybe?

might there not be enough stability on the main shaft?

put in one of their extreme high angle double cardan and be done with it

Bingo. I think Kevin Fell runs one.

I'd rather run some offset balljoints, cut up some new spring pertches, and have one less ujoint to change ;)
