Shield,
I angled the 5in1 about 15 degress form 90. The push rod is closer to 20 degrees, but I did not want to cut too much! It seems to work well. I cut the upper 5in1 mount with my dremel tool and sanded the lower one to 85 degrees. I did not cut any of the lower mount off to keep the 5in1 as far forward as possible and to make sure the pushrod does not rub the lower body mount. I then sanded the two with a block to make sure they lined up straight at the correct angle. Once it was sanded and cleaned up, I used a body mount washer inbetween both frame mounts and the 5in1 (on the two 5in1 mounting screws). Hope that helps.
