I imagine the angle changes only 2-4 deg. but this can probably cause vibration and U-joint wear. I have a 98 Disco.(non rotoflex) All comments welcome!!!   Mark Devereux (Groupw) Member Username: Groupw Post Number: 93 Registered: 12-2002 Posted on Friday, September 19, 2003 - 05:09 pm:    Under 3 inch lift, you're probably fine. You will only know for sure when you drive it.   Joey (Joey4420) Member Username: Joey4420 Post Number: 211 Registered: 04-2003 Posted on Friday, September 19, 2003 - 05:42 pm:    I just did a 2 inch OME HD lift, and as per Great Basin Rovers, you have about a 20% chance of getting vibration. I have an extremly small vibration between 5 and 15 mph....If I hadn't payed close attention during acceleration I probably wouldn't even notice it.
