The

I think he is asking about the splines showing? Or the fact it's missing the boot.
Does the X have a lift?

At this point I'm not sure. Springs don't look stock but otherwise probably no lift. I'm getting ready to change the springs so I'll work on this then also. The joint feels loose and there is a clunk from this i believe. I'll post the part number on the boot when i order it probably tonight.
