Here is where it gets complicated. Once you lift a vehicle it is almost impossible to get a factory angle on the driveshafts. A lot depends on tires and the lift. For example if you lift 12 invited but only run 35 inch tires the axle will never come back in the "range" of the factory angle. So doing what I told the OP will get him close assuming he's running a 40in or bigger tires
) The higher the angle the driveshaft operates at, the more parasitic power loss you experience.

It can. Running that big of tires you need to get rid of the tie rods and run a heavy duty steering. Myself I'm running DOM running and heim joints
