Pro Comp or Ready Lift UCA's

[Seth_5.7]

I'm looking to replace my UCA's so I can continue with my suspension build and I can't decide on the Readylift 67-1500 UCA's or the Pro Comp 61181 UCA's. Pro Comp is a little cheaper and I know that they have quality products, but I would like some opinions from people who have worked with, or used these 2 certain UCA's.

I hyperlinked the websites of the parts ^

Those are the UCA's that I originally wanted but i still havn't seen that those give any kind of advantage over the ReadyLift ones, especially for $150 more. Maybe you can change my mind on that?

One company makes full blown lift kits, and shares research info with BDS ... The other makes crappy little spacer level kits ... You can find a number of people on here with Zone, and I would trust Pro Comp as well ... Not sure I’ve seen any one using RL ... Your truck ... Convince yourself

Carli also makes UCA”s
As does Rough Country.

The pro comps look nearly identical to mevotechs which should run a little cheaper ($30-$40 each on Rock Auto).

Would the Pro Comps help with the ball joint angle issue that the stock UCA's have? Cause I'm kinda leaning towards the Pro Comps because I have used many parts from them before.

they look exactly like mevotechs

The procomps look like stock replacments with no angle correction, you might want to call 4 wheel parts and ask them

This is a Procomp 6" setup. I have not had any issues, 50k miles on lift. I feel it is time to replace tie rods and CV axles though.

Ha, they are supposed to be, was a stage 2 kit, per the prior owner that had it installed Now that you said that I need to take a closer look. Thanks!

 

[JB1]

I thought the stage 2 just added the front struts/coilover

 

[Seth_5.7]

So I contacted 4wheel parts and those specific Pro Comps don't correct the angle, but they do have a pair that does, but its out of the price range. I can't find the Rough Country ones for my year model it seems they only have 2012-2018. So unless I can find a pair of UCA's that correct the angle in the sub 400$ range, I'll try out the Ready Lift UCA's.

Sure as ****, those are not Procomp uca's and the stage II kit does not include them. Thanks for pointing that out JB!

I think they’ve expanded and make lift kits now as well.
Pro-comp also makes crappy spacer lifts too.

main thing is your stock arms held up just fine and I know your trucks seen some mud lol

^ Rough country UCA”s- They should fit a 2011, but I would call them to confirm, and they do sell them by them selves.
But you can not use them unless you are going minimum 2.5 to 3.5 inches as they have corrected geometry.

^ Carli UCA

If you just google ram 1500 UCA - there are a few.

They range from ur factory replacements like the mevo techs all the way up to ur icon/Carli.
