I'm trying to borrow a set of adjustable upper control arms now. I have bee thinking of that for a few days.

Thanks for the advice.

If the driveshaft isn't installed, he didn't mention that it was, how does the pinion angle affect the travel of the axle housing? I understand how it could with the driveshaft acting as yet another pivot, but without it I don't.

He was talking about after it was installed, however, if the arms are wrong or have other problems, that will affect that too, before it's installed.

I now have a set of fully adjustable "after market" upper and lower control arms. I am confident my problem is solved now.

I also discovered the driver side lower control arm (from Street Beasts) is bent outward, adding to the other problem. It will go in a junk pile now.

The build continues......

It sounds like the arms are basically to correct deficiencies in the construction of the chassis/parts.

Yep, you got it right and it's all supposed to be "jig welded".
