NT to WT diff swap, how to keep correct castor????

As the subject says, I am going to convert my NT to WT diffs but staying SPUA.

How do I go about keeping stock castor angle? and should I point the rear pinion up a little to help with shaft angle? Pictures would be great if anybody has got some.
