so i have a 6" zone suspention lift. with I'm assuming factory UCA, and factory shocks in the front. Should these be upgraded? the zone ones run for about $500? someone recommended me MEVOTECH's? Any idea what i'd need? because i want to add bill's adjustables in the front to level my truck out.

37" tires.

I was told that with the zone lift you don't need them because the zone lift accounts for the adjusted height and no longer requires the stronger UCA... this came from the shop doing my 6 inch zone lift on Saturday

I've been running 6" of lift and 35" for 15k so far an my UCA ball joints are fine so far. My truck is a street princess, if I was taking it off-road regularly I'd probably get the Zone UCA installed.

Forget about crapy Mevotech, if you'll decide to change your UCA's buy a good product don't risk your life. My choice was ReadyLift

Those Readylift ones seem like a good choice. Not too many UCA manufacturers specifically address the known problem with the stock Ram ball joints popping out like they do.
Did you get the uni-ball or ball joint ones?
