Default Is this cv angle too much?

I recently bought a 2009 F150 that came with 35" Nitto Trail Grappers with 20" rims. The dealer who I bought it from said it had a leveling kit on it but I don't know what size. Im guessing it has a 2" because it has a 1.25" block under the leaf spring in the rear. Anyway I was looking at the cv angle and it looks kinda extreme to me. I am in danger of doing some major damage or am I ok? Thanks for the help guys!!

I'd guess that's its atleast a 2.5" level, but you should be fine. The 1.25" block in the back is factory on the 4x4s

Thanks for the info! I didn't know that the block was stock.

Any time you have pleats in the boot touching...that is too much of an angle, which you have.

Look into a diff drop kit to fix the OEM geometry.

Thats kinda what I was thinking. Maybe it might be a good idea to get rid of the leveling kit and do a 4" or 6" lift. For the money i spend on that it may save some money and headaches down the road
