Doing winter maintained on my 56 that I bought in Sept & notice the pinion angle looks to be off, the car has new leaf springs installed by previous owner, I think the spring wedges might be installed backwards, cant find any illustrations, Can someone send a diagram/pictures/sketch ?

From these pictures, I can't see anything wrong.

re the spring wedges, the thin part of the wedge should be pointing towards the front of car
