I would think a drop spring would mess with angles more than a block,as the arms set down the pinion will tend to roll nose down,& need a shim. You should see the shaft on my 69.....the back of the rear shaft angle upward to the rear diff! the sum of the 2 angle equal a straightline (trans & diff are phased properly). I have had the u joints in for 3 or 4 yrs, without problem& the shaft spins smooth to 6500 rpms.....thats about topped on 4.10 coggs....crazyL
