Need help with pinion angle

I need to measure for a one piece driveshaft but assume I should correct the pinion angle first.. This is a short wheelbase truck if it makes a difference.. I measured the angles and this is what I came up with.. At the tail shaft 4 degrees down toward the floor.. Pinion is 8 degrees up. A 12 degree difference seems extreme, have I measured wrong? Btw the truck is lowered 5/7. Spindle and springs/ springs and blocks.. Thanks for any info.
