How's the front axle angle on that lift? Does it have the same acute angle at the CV joint as the leveling kits do?

No. You retain all the OEM angles both for the steering and the CV joints.

It's a very well engineered kit. There is a new sub frame for the front end that lowers it thus raising the vehicle.
