I have not heard yet somebody wear the front CV joint prematurely in Australia and they have been lifting LC since 98 with no diff lowering kit.
Does it look normal? Of course not and you only seen that normally on cars with torn CV boot. It makes me nervous the first time I saw that but I been watching for cracked or torn boot and so far so good.
Would it increase wear? Definitely. But how much? Probably not much to make a concern.
Of course I am still going to get Slee differential drop braket.
