That's a fair point, but what mileage are they doing over those 3 years?

Just because something lasts 3 years in one situation doesn't mean it will in others. The point I was making is that it is ideal to have them straight, as that will minimise wear

Then again, for a Haynes to have a CV joint at 60 deg. then something has gone horribly wrong.
