NOT 100% false. The guys statements have some merit. When you change the pinion angle you can add more stress to your drive shafts leading to premature failure. It will vary from model to model, but you better believe that some dealers would use this as an excuse to not cover certain drivetrain failures.

Talk to a shop that rebuilds transaxles... They love guys in lowered cars because they are such great customers.
