I have the 3.5 readylift kit. I eventually want to switch to a 6 inch lift. Can someone tell me if you can use the readylift upper control arms on any 6 inch lift? Or do I have to go back to stock uppers?

The steering knuckle on the six inch full lifts are longer so that the stock upper control arm ball joint angle is correct. With the RL UCA's I think the ball joint angle will be pretty extreme. They will also push the top of the knuckle out causing alignment issues since they need to be longer to keep the geometry correct when dropping 2 to 3.5 inches. I may be wrong but that's how I understand it.
 
You will want the stock or Mopar control arms for a 6" lift. The angle for the Readylift kit is designed for it to be slanted downard. In a 6" lift the control arms are straight out and the Readylift ball joint would not have much travel room left.
