So I have read on this forum a few places that the 2WD 2012+ Rams don't have the faulty ball joint problems unlike the 4WD models. Is this true? I have a 2016 Ram 1500 QC and was wondering when I did lift it using the maxtrac shock and strut kit if I would need to upgrade my UCA's and Ball Joints. Any feedback on lifting would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Very nice. How do you like your 4 inch lift? I was deciding between just leveling in the front or going 4.5/3 in the back. Undecided still

Love it rides great it's a little stiffer than stock but that's expected with any lift
