I have beee checking mine, and they are still good, no wear, or lifting out of the UCA.

I am also doing more research on the Zone UCA to possibly avoid this issue. I'll give Zone Offroad a ring tomorrow.

Must be a 2014 issue, hundreds of people have installed some type of a 4wd leveling kit, this is the first time I have seen this issue.

have you check the front suspension part numbers between the 13 & 14, to see if they are identical? It's just odd to see this happen. Two 2014's are now having this problem on the forum...

Im a 2wd, so I dont know much about 4wd when it comes to the additional suspension components, but I was just making a general assumption becasue of the recent comments made by (2) 2014 truck owners.

Seems like there must be something changed, maybe a new ball joint or UCA vendor?

Maybe someone with a 4x4 can cross reference the part numbers and see what they find?

I have a 2013 express with a RCX 6in lift and mine did that also. I am looking at getting a set of upper arms from 09+ Ram Upper Arms For Lifted Trucks
These should do the trick to fix that and more.

Unless you live somewhere with a really dry climate and mild winter, I wouldn't run anything with a uniball. They have awful protection from the elements.

I have a 2013 Sport, I just looked at the numbers on the UCA. What are you guys showing on the 2014's?

I show 2 sets on numbers:
