I'm trying to find out what the diff pinion angle was on both a V6 & a 4 cyl. Capri please. If any one can help it would be most appreciated. Thank you. #1 2 Replies Related Threads

Parallel axis' in other words. This minimises vibrations. Should be interesting to hear any comments to the contrary and reasoning why. SFE #2

I have an unused from new one in my shed that measured at 4-4.5 degrees. Thanks again Cheers Merv. #3
