Nice. Looks like the correction is for 1-3”.

Any idea how many choices of non-corrected UCA there are? Just Mevotech ??

Fabtech have a tubular uniball that is non corrected for you guys with the 4-6" lifts that need factory UCA's. Fabtech FTS23039. Verified with Fabtech.
I believe CST CSS-D2-5 is also non-corrected but i wasn't able to verify with them so i'm not sure about it. this one is also uniball and tubular, but double check with them to make sure is non-corrected.

I'm actually looking to replace my rough country uca's that I bought on a budget a while back. These look pretty nice.

These look really heavy duty.

I saw these not to long ago on IG. Exciting. Makes me wonder what camburg has on the R&D table for Ram owners. I would love a full suspension kit on my 2014.

There are a few options you could go with depending on your setup. If you are looking for a quality UCA at a lower cost then there is Zone which is the most popular, Freedom Off road, and then there is the top dollar ones for higher end setups like these or the ICON delta Joints.

Let me know if we can help set you up. Message me for info or a quote

I ran Camburgs on my Gen1 Tundra. They were 1" uniballs and squeaked from the day I installed them. I replaced with stainless FK uniballs (I think Camburg was using chrome plated at the time) and the squeaking stopped for a while. The bushings squeaked as well... I wrote it off for the price I paid to maximize the offroad performance of my truck.

The uniballs were exposed and allowed dirt and sand to wear at the lining and the uniballs themselves to the point where my mechanic said there was some play that prevented proper wheel alignment. These Ram UCAs use a larger uniball - if they come with a cap, it may help prevent premature wear significantly. Just remember to clean the underside of the ball cup and use some sort of dry lube on them (don't use wd40 or similar).

This is what I used:

Camburg makes great products - but like all mods, be aware of the potential downsides to them... In this case, there is a possibility of the squeaks and the introduction of a wear items (uniballs and bushings) that will need periodic attention.

100% right on. Uniballs are not for everybody. Spherical bearings can be noisy and they require frequent lubing. The caps will protect the uniball from the top but all the grime can still get in there from below. I did the same with that lube. The bearings should be changed every 20-40k miles ($114 for the pair) depending on how much abuse they see, some people may be able to get more if it's street only application and not salt belt conditions etc. you'll find sperifical bearings in race applications so they will wishtand lots of abuse.
