ERSKA, I noticed from the photographs that there's no spacer installed between the carrier bearing and it's mounting bracket to account for the truck's lift; we recommend at least a quarter-inch of spacer for every inch of lift over the rear axle.

After you re-establish the correct pinion angle, keep it there with a set of traction bars to eliminate leaf wrap in the Hotchkiss rear:

Also, as Alpine posted - be sure you have proper ROM in the telescope!
