To level it the upper arm needs to be replaced.

Mevotech makes one that'll work. The arms are about $80 for the pair plus an alignment. It's on the radar, just mixed in with a lot of other things that I'd rather do first, like the heads and cam swap for my Z.

Do you have any more info about the upper control arm issue? My friend who I did the install on for his 2012, just leased a new truck, a 2015 Ram. I'm betting I'll get a call soon about leveling this one too. I saw online it said 13-14 model years. Was it maybe fixed for 2015? or should I still tell him to buy the better upper control arms for the install?
