    My flange yoke recently went out and I believe I've found the right part to replace. My question is could a lift kit (added height) cause it to snap? A friend of mine said i needed to tilt my read axle up because with the added lift kit the driveshaft was no longer completely straight and caused increased tension and eventually led to my driveshaft falling off. Any info would be great!

    My truck is also lifted (6inch +2 inch bilsteins) and this just happened to me. I wonder if there's any way to accurately adjust the driveshaft angle for the height increase
