Can you take a picture showing the angle of the CV shaft and control arms in relation to level ground? It is very common for people with cranked front suspensions, (this includes "leveling" kits), or non full drop suspension subframes, to experience binding.

That's pretty far away to see for sure, but it looks like your CV's would almost be binding just rolling down the road at those angles, and definitely binding under power and turning. I bet your UCAs are on the droop stops.

nope they dont bind goin down the road and ucs's are close to droop stops but not on them
