Default keep tearing up cv shafts.... could it be the suspension drop or...?

i keep replacing the cv shafts on my 95 ever few months. i come to the conclusion that it might be the drop kit causing them to fail. has anyone else noticed with a real low drop that their cv fail quicker?

I had one of mine go bad (d. side) but to go through them every few months is pretty bad. Either you're dropped extremely low or have a horrible alignment or something to be wearing through them so fast.

When you replace them are you replacing just the boots or the entire axle?

well the front has neuspeed 2.5 or 3 inch drop coils w/o an alignment or camber kit. could this be the cause. the tops lean outwards a little too
