When I do this I'll take a lot of pics and measurements for the "historical records". :bwgr:

Well, that's true, but you will also be putting a steeper angle on the U-joint.
I doubt that the slight change in axle angle is going to have much of an effect on how much oil the ring gear is swimming in.
I'm not 100% for sure, but you MAY be over thinkin' this a tad.
