When to start looking at replacing front suspension?
So yesterday I was working on my expanded metal grill and took off the front airdam when I noticed the CV's seemed to being going up towards the wheel. I'm not saying this is bad or anything but is this a sign that my front coils are starting to wear? The front does seem a bit low but I have always thought that. My WK has the diesel which ways about 100 lbs more than the Hemi and also has QDII. It has a little under 50k miles. Here are some pics that might explain better.
I have been lifted over 4 years and couldn't tell you what the stock cv angle looks like... Haha

Haha well thanks for the reply anyways. Maybe I'll go around a walmart parking lot looking at stock wks hahaha
I dont remember my stock angles looking like that... whats the difference in height front vs rear? If its well over 2" your front springs are probably shot.
I'll take measurements soon but I have MLLs in the rear so that would throw off the rear measurements. I'll see if I can find stock measurements on jeep forum or something. Thanks for the reply.
Stock ride height is around the 500mm (19.5-20") hub to fender
Never had a photo of it, i got mine fitted with a lift before it left the dealer
