UCA and Body Lift Questions

[rsfoster]

Anyone have any thoughts or experiance with the Cognito upper control arms and ball joints?

 

I have had the RC 2" leveling kit on my truck for 35,000 miles without issue but since I have heard about the ball joints going out on other trucks I decided to look around and these look good, just curious about what the board thought.

 

Also, I have been considering adding the RC 1.25 or Zone 1.5 Body Lift ot the truck to get just a little better stance but I am curious how the reciver hitch and the strait exhust for the 6.2 look with this set up.

 

I have never really liked Body LIfts in the past due to the extra frame shown but I have seen all the NNBS trucks with them on here and they do not seem to have that issue but I can't seem to find a picture that shows what the gap between the bumper and hitch look like after the body lift.

 

I noticed on the HD trucks that the hitch and bumper have a larger gap between them but that the HD hitch also has a larger plate around it that appears to mask this difference. Is the gap on the half-ton after a 1.25 or 1.5 body lift about the same as that on an HD?
