The right angle varies with the exact application, but I don't think you'd
want it to be any more than 5 degrees. You don't want to stress the joints
or cause undue wear by having too much angle.
The variance as I understand it depends on how you'll use the vehicle and
the idea is to make the angle optimum under the most common driving
conditions.
