If you are referring to the diagonal link, you adjust it so the rear end is centered in the chassis.

I believe you want 1/2 the amount of total thread sticking out on each end. The other half will be threaded in the diginal link. And yes i would try and square and center as close as you can,. then connect dig. link. Dont forget to set pinion angle(get as close as you can) once motor & trans. in you can readjust.
