Yup...that is the basis of discussion on ratings and the specifications provided by any OEM...it is for the vehicle as it left 'their' factory
Any re-engineering (modifications) alters the base engineering...therefore the OEM's labels/brochures/specifications/etc do NOT apply anymore....AKA...they are not as liable in whatever area that/those re-engineering components/systems/etc perform for
You are just parroting exactly the basics of my wording and just using different verbiage...saying my wording is false...
Unless these 'quality' after market kit providers (engineers) changed out the drive-line U-Joints to CV joints...Hooke's formula's applies...heck they still apply to CV joints too, but to only one half of that CV joint. Guess it would be too much to go into the morass of info...that Hooke's stuff is also the basis for sun-dials...Middle and High school physic's class touched on this when in school...college physics got into much more detail
Universal Joints (Automobile)
Real life experience with one of my designer (youngster in his mid 20's) bought in his jacked up half ton to work. Asked his boss (me) why it is vibrating badly after the last 4" body lift (already had a 6" suspension lift)...
Took one look and noticed the drive shaft phasing was off. Advised him to take it back to "The Best 4x4 in Silicone Valley" and tell them to "correct the spline alignment" of the drive shaft...
