do my CV angles look ok?

they look fine to me, but just to get some other opinions. i'm lifted about 3" in the front withe the 5100's at max setting and 1/4 inch spacers on top.

reason i ask is because i'm contemplating if i should do the diff drop or not. if i do the diff drop i think i would have to put spacers so the RCI skid plate would not touch the diff, but i dont really want the skid plate hanging any lower than it is..

i'm also about to put in CVJ rebuilt axles with new boots that are more prone to offroad abuse.

Your angles are fine in that picture, but you need to put a jack under the center of the frame, lift both wheels, and see what they look like at full droop, and also spin the wheels to make sure the CV's still turn freely. Generally the Bilsteins alone won't allow too much droop to cause problems, but since you also added the 1/4" spacer it's a good idea to double check.
 
That angle looks better than mine with a diff drop. I'm at 24" hub to fender on an 08 for comparison. Will try to get pictures.
