Your current setup should be pretty close and be okay with some problems. If doable, drop carrier bearing to put 6 degrees on front shaft, making 1 degree working angle at trans which is within spec. Will lessen rear shaft angle to maybe 9 degrees, making working angle at pinion and carrier the same. Adjusting pinion down 1-2 degrees (4-5 degrees) will probably be necessary due to load (wrap)
