The Whiteline KTA322 front upper control arms solve all of that in a single bolt-on kit. Engineered specifically for the 2011-2022 Ram 1500 DS platform, these arms restore correct suspension geometry for lifts between 30mm and 70mm (approximately 1.25 to 2.75 inches), delivering up to 3.5 degrees of caster correction and up to 1.5 degrees of negative camber recovery. The Whiteline KTA322 replaces both front upper control arms with precision-engineered assemblies built around GIIRO maintenance-free bushing technology, so you get a factory-quiet ride with performance-grade geometry correction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for 30mm to 70mm (1.25 to 2.75 inch) lifted Ram 1500 DS

1500?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The KTA322 is engineered for lifts between 30mm and 70mm, which covers a standard 2-inch lift or leveling kit. Installing these arms at that lift height restores proper caster geometry and prevents the ball joint bind and camber issues that factory arms cause when the vehicle is raised.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need an alignment after installing the KTA322 upper control arms?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, a full four-wheel alignment is required after installation. The KTA322 corrects your alignment geometry, but the final caster and camber settings need to be dialed in by an alignment shop after the arms are torqued down at ride height.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the KTA322 fit both 4WD and 2WD Ram 1500?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe KTA322 is designed for the Ram 1500 DS platform including 4WD applications where lifted alignment correction is most critical. Verify your specific configuration against Whiteline's fitment guide before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is GIIRO bushing technology and why does it matter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGIIRO is Whiteline's proprietary maintenance-free bushing design. Unlike traditional polyurethane bushings that require periodic greasing, GIIRO bushings are self-lubricating and retain their performance without maintenance. They also deliver OEM-level NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) isolation so your ride quality stays comfortable on and off the trail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eAre the ball joints included with the KTA322?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The Whiteline KTA322 arms come with new ball joints pre-installed. This makes the KTA322 a complete upper control arm replacement, not just a bushing upgrade, and eliminates the need to source or press in separate ball joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does it take to install the Whiteline KTA322?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhiteline rates installation at approximately 3 hours with proper tools. The arms bolt directly to the factory mounting points, so no cutting, drilling, or fabrication is required. A floor jack, jack stands, 21mm socket and wrench set, and a torque wrench are the primary tools needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill the KTA322 correct death wobble on my lifted Ram 1500?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCorrected caster geometry from the KTA322 addresses one of the key contributing factors to death wobble and shimmy in lifted trucks. While the control arms alone may not resolve all causes, restoring proper caster angle significantly improves high-speed stability and reduces the conditions that allow shimmy to develop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the warranty on the Whiteline KTA322?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhiteline covers the KTA322 under a limited 3-year \/ 60,000-mile warranty against manufacturing defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need to replace both sides or just one?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe KTA322 comes as a pair including both driver and passenger arms. Whiteline recommends replacing both sides simultaneously to maintain balanced suspension geometry and equal caster correction across the front axle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafely raise and support the vehicle on jack stands with the wheels removed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisconnect the wheel speed sensor harness clip from the factory upper control arm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreak loose and remove the upper ball joint nut using a 21mm socket and wrench.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse a pry bar to separate the ball joint from the steering knuckle, then support the knuckle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove the front and rear upper control arm mounting bolts using a 21mm ratchet and wrench.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtract the factory upper control arm from the chassis mount.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstall the Whiteline KTA322 arm into the factory mounting location and start both bolts by hand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaise the lower control arm to approximate ride height and torque the arm mounting bolts to factory specification (approximately 130 ft-lb).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsert the ball joint stud into the steering knuckle and torque the ball joint nut to specification (approximately 40 ft-lb), then apply the required torque angle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReconnect the wheel speed sensor harness clip.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReinstall wheels and torque lug nuts to spec (approximately 130 ft-lb) in a cross pattern.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRepeat for the opposite side.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHave a full four-wheel alignment performed before driving.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWARNING:\u003c\/strong\u003e This product can expose you to chemicals including lead and phthalates, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
