Yeah, because you can't. The simple answer is "Yes, it doesn't change if caster is correct". So with lift its pointing below the output. How far depends on lift. Your talking garbage saying a DC works. With misleading info. A DC is a total waste of time and money. Part time it, or FIX the problem. Can you have correct caster and a working DC shaft on a lifted 80 = NO. It's 1 or the other. (Without modifying a housing)
Also, what is the difference between your caster plates and others? I'm really interested to know now.

Well one thing that's being left out of the discussion is how the difference in lengths of the upper and lower links will change the pinion during suspension travel. So depending on your plan for the pinion you also need to plan your links to keep that plan. ie parallel flanges need close to equal length links, etc
I mentioned that in another thread. The unequal 5 link rear at 5" of lift is only out of parrallel by 3*. And equal link would always be correct no matter the lift.
But we are talking about the front shaft. The rear definitely doesn't need a DC shaft.

Yes we are talking about the front shaft and we are talking about someone doing a custom 3 link. Their decision on what they ultimately set the caster at will determine flange angle at their decided ride height as well as what will be needed to maintain good driveshaft geometry such as equal length upper and lowers, etc.
