Method notes

Working angle is the absolute difference between the connected component angle and the driveshaft angle.
This is a static U-joint angle screen. It does not diagnose vibration, dynamic axle wrap, slip-yoke travel, balance, phasing, CV shafts or torque capacity.
Use a consistent sign convention for all three measured angles. Supplier and vehicle-manufacturer limits control final setup.
