CV angles

How do these angles look? Anything I should be concerned about in the near future?

 

That seems like a bit of rust for CA... did you get the coilovers second hand?

The CV angles look ok to me, but I'm no expert.

 

It’s more the angles of where the axle goes into the differentials

 

what do you mean?

 

I did get them second hand unfortunately. Wish I would've just gone with a brand new set

 

You are focusing on the cv boots near the tire. We need a better picture of the cv boots closer to the differential. Those are the ones which commonly touch and cause issues.

 

Ahhh gotcha i'll go take a pic of that in a few

 

Yup these ones

 

Looks like the inners are making contact on both sides, that shiny ring on each one is a tell-tale sign. Could slide the boots down a bit to relieve it.

 

The shiny rings can be normal from turning. Doesn’t necessarily mean they are always touching.

edit: possible from wheel travel up and down.

 

Angle of the inner boot shouldn't change much when turning, either way you can see the rib touching at the six o'clock position on each one.

 

Those inner fins are definitely rubbing. They will rub apart in no time, take it from me.

Best solution is to lower your front lift until you can slide a piece of paper between the fins indicating they aren't rubbing

 

Looks like they’re touching. I’d lower it a little until you see space between the fins.

 

Picture of your preload? Show the threads on top of your CO.

 

my tires rub if i go any lower than this

 

What size tires?

May need to lower and then adjust caster to avoid rubbing. Fortunately, SPC's allow for adjustment.

Do you think 1 rotation of the collar would help at all?
