Yup, not to sure on that pinion angle, hard to tell...Check the yokes for play, see if you can wiggle them on the diff and t case or not.

Thanks for those pics. Is there play in the front pinion yoke. The front angle looks off. How are the knuckles facing on the tires. take that pic

Just so I understand this for future reference, should the angle be such that the pinion is pointing like this / and the front DS not exactly parallel to the ground, but also tilted in that same direction? Or is his angle TOO high and the pinion needs to be angled more like this --.
I only ask because in the picture it looks like they are almost parallel, and also I have never had to deal with this.

You shouldn't, especially with a T-case drop already in place...and besides, the SYE applies to the rear driveshaft, which isn't the problem at hand here. Definitely sounds like a pinion angle issue. Ditch those stock LCA's
