Default lowered 4x4 cv click?

finally lowered my 16 f150 4x4.
went -1.5lower springs, and -2.5 on belltechs, removed rear block and -2" hangers.
so total -4 front -3 rear.
alignment is good, tires clearing everything, but im getting a clicking while reversing at full turn, sounds like posible cv noise.
has anyone ran into this before?

Check your front wheel-well liners, mine sagged a bit and I'd hear some noise when turning hard left in forward or reverse.
I simply tied mine back with some heavy zip ties and the noise went away.

I'm not saying you don't have CV joint noise, but it might not be that big of a problem and simply be some rubbing

Check your clearance to the lower strut hat on the Belltech struts. They may be making contact.
