Grease leaking from ball joints... what should I do?

I got under the 4Runner for a general inspection of my suspension after my last wheeling trip and noticed I had some "wet spots" or grease leaking from my upper and lower ball joints on both my front driver and passenger sides.

I dont remember it being like this when I install my suspension...

What does this mean? Too much lift? Pushing the UCA to its limits, or just the rubber is figured and needs replacing?

My fronts are Bilstein 6112 using one down from the tallest notch.

This is normal as the lift changes the angle the BJ sits now, and push the grease to the other side. Clean up, and keep an eye on it.
