    just wondering if someone that knows can tell me how bad these angles look. keep in mind i have a bumper and winch on the way so hopefully that weight will bring the angles down some

    I always heard that if the ridges of the boots touch then that is too much angle.

    if you've got bumpers on the way, I'm guessing those are OME 886's and nitrocharger shocks, those OME coils are gonna hold that bumper without and not sag

    It's not that bad and with ur bumper winch you'll be fine... Do the boot mod... Loosen up the clamp on the small side of the cv. Lot and stretch the boot out alil bit and re tighten clamp... It will help with cv boot life
