When did they change the design of the UCA were peoplw are popping ball joints.
On a 2012 with bills at 2.1 do i need to be concerned
Ha ha ha ??
Theres a billion post about this Sir ..
This is what you should know ,,in a nutshell
2013 to present the UCA & ball joint did change .
Most 2013 +" Rams " lifted or not have had ZERO issues .
If one uses a SPACER up front for a LIFT or a LEVEL ... They are at more of a RISK of blowing out a UCA ball joint .
IF one uses a High performance lifting shock assy up front for a lift or a level , they are at a CONSIDERABLE ( LESS ) RISK of blowing out a UCA ball joint
, Such as BILSTEINS OR FOX .
The above is what you need to know Sir ; However , you should also understand that UCA ball joints in any year typically DO NOT JUST EXPLODE ,LOL ... The UCA ball joints typically goes out over time .....meaning just keep a look out in the ball joint itself after a lift or leve ....l if you choose to stay OEM ( UCA Wise ) .
If you off-road regularly as I do ...then I'd recommend a stronger UCA ....

#2 Zone
There are others , but imo it's a waste of money .
I off-road more than anyone I've ever known ... 4wd is a close friend of mine [emoji16][emoji1303][emoji1303]
I chose the CHEAP ASS MEVOTECH UCAS over 35 thousand miles ago ......still going strong ...
Hope this helps !
