The rear lower control arms do not adjust pinion angle, the upper control arms do.
If you are trying to adjust pinion angle, get yourself a set of core 4x4 double adjustable upper rear control arms. They will allow you to adjust the angle without taking the control arm off multiple times.
The pinion angle should be within 3 degrees to be considered optimal.
I've never see a 4 inch drop put a pinion angle that far our of alignment. If it did, bell tech would be out of business.
