Default U4 & U5 Question

I should be ready to fit these by the weekend but the book says they have a 5 degree angle which way does this angle need to be .I can't for the life of me work it out

On another not the dreaded Front frame

Is it advisable to weld it fully before fitting?

[quote=Talonmotorsport; If you make the front frame the same as the book with the pie cuts and bends your top wishbone brackets will need packing out and the brackets will not sit square on the tube.[/QUOTE]

Ah yes! I remember it well
