I hope your rear pinion doesn't raise and lower as you speed up or slow down. That tells me that you have something loose. If you had a leaf spring setup that might be the case but with upper and lower control arms you should not have axle wrap.

If your new driveshaft is a double cardan style then the pinion should be about 2° less than the angle of the driveshaft. Since it is the rear and you have no worries about caster for steering just use adjustable contr arms and adjust as needed.
