Rough Country UCA

[mike905]

Anyone running rough country upper control arms with just a 2 or 2.5" leveling kit/bilstein?

They're listed as for a 3" lift, wondering if they would be better than stock for 2" lift

I am but I have the motofab 3" but 2.5 would be the same.

They should work with 2" but at the same time their notes say ONLY for 3" lift so who knows. I had the Zones with the Rancho QL at 2" and they worked without issues, I have no idea about the offset in any other aftermarket UCA for our RAM's but the ones built with offset for 2-3" lifts should in theory have very close specs within each other.
Call RC and see what they say about running those with 2", they're the ones who will warranty the product if something goes bad.

I know ready lift arms will work ok also the mevotech ttx arms I just installed would be she factory angle with no correction which at 2 you really dont need they are just much stronger then stock and not as much money (90ish each from rock auto)

Yeah I asked RC and they said they're only to be used with the 3" lift they sell, which just sounded like them wanting me to buy their product.

Was hoping someone with experience with these UCA would chime in

I have RC UCAs with Bilsteins at 2.8. Truck aligned great, balljoint angles are perfect and the ride quality is awesome. Not sure how they would work on lower settings but at 2.8" they are perfect.

Not a huge RC fan as far as suspension is concerned. I have alot of friends who run them and some have issues and some do not. None of their trucks ride as nicely as mine, however. I went with ReadyLift UCA's and could not be happier. Each to ones own though...

RC is the cheaper option. You generally will get your desired result and have no big issues. There are much better brands out there if you are willing to spend a bit more.

To note your point uca aren't really going to effect ride quality. Unless you have extreme angles. Angles which would not be the case here.

True. My concern with all UCA's is durability. I'm sure RC is a fine brand, but its just not something that i would recommend.
