Steep angles will 'pinch' the joints. Flexing will simply speed the process of wearing through them.

They could last 20k or 30k or more, or they may spring a leak with under 5k. Just depends.

I have an OME 3 inch lift and mine are starting to sling grease after about a year of having the lift on. So I am ordering front and rear Coast Driveshafts.
