I understand where high cv angles are bad but what exactly can break? Te joint it's self or the boot or something else? How bad is it to have high angles while in 4wd going about 20 at the most? (on sand) if it matters. I'll post pics of my angles and what I drive in later
Because I couldn't quite find an answer

the joint itself comes apart.
Correct, the joints are only rated for something like a 30* angle or close to that.
looks like my ball joints are dry rotted (bottom) and pulled (top) and have been for a little while.. any of you done a ball joint flip? i dont really see how that will help with the anything but ive heard about it. looks like would give the camber a hard time even after an alignment.

angles look good. if the ball joint boots are not torn and you have no play in them. leave them be.

remember the pic of the cv angle is upside down. if its fine at that angle then awesome! but my setup is a set of 3" T bar keys (probably just ford keys) and 3" blocks in the back. it sits on the droop stop in the front so it has a stiff ride and close to no down travel. monday i will be cutting and lowering them (pics to follow) so that will fix the ride. Body lift would probably be better if you dont mind the gap it will cause and it wont add to ground clearance. it sits on 33x12.50s on 15x10s with 4" BS ill put some more pics in the album tomorrow. thanks for the likes and help!

looking forward to the pics!
Those CVs don't look that bad, but if you say it is cranked 3" and on the stops that is horrible
