Actually you don't want to match the angle perfectly, if you do, the U joints won't move enough to lube the needle bearings. you will prematurely wear them out. if the engine is 3-5 degrees down as normal, set the rear at 0 degrees. the 3 degree diff will make sure the U joints move enough to lube them and if you step on the gas, the rear will probably move about 3 degrees up from suspension wrap up from the torque and the drive shaft will be straight as an arrow for maximum power transmission.....

Not true, set transmission down 1-3 degrees and rear end up 1-3 degrees but should be the same degree in front and back.
