2" leveling kit questions, cv, ball joint angles

Just installed, are these angles a concern?

with a lift kit, you have no other options. The axle shaft seems to be more like 4 inches from level....... is the tire setting on the ground or is there a jack under the frame ? sure looks a lot more than 2 inches lift.

Truck and all 4 tires are on the ground. I wonder if previous owner had a leveling kit installed, the type you need to compress coil for.....

that's a pretty steep angle for a 2 inch lift....... If you had a standard setup and lift the frame with a jack, the tires drop about 2 inches, and I don't think they would look that angle... Im guessing its more than 2 inch.

Did you install the coil-over ProComp struts? They look like ProComps Pro Runner SS ride hieght adjustable shocks, they come in many different lifts from 0.5" all the way to 6.0". I'm guessing the previous owner already had some lift done. I have a 2.5 rough country in mine and the angles are no where close to that extreme.
