Someone please help, this is my first truck and I installed Bilstien 5100 on the highest ride height. Can someone please tell me which upper control arms do I need to purchase.
 
There are various uca'a available from the factory arms used in the Mopar lift to the Icon tubular arms. A search will return several options.
 
Does your truck have the ORP kit or is it a non-ORP truck?

If ORP equipped and you run the Bilsteins at 2” I’d recommended rough country UCAs. They are made for a 3-3.5” lift which you will be at with the bils at 2 and the factory 1”. Also aluminum (no rusting) and have greasable ball joints.

If you have a non ORP truck then Readylift UCAs may be the best option at an affordable price.

If you’re a baller you can splurge on the Icon UCAs but the two UCAs suggested about are pretty affordable and would likely work for 90% of the folks that lift their trucks these days.

I don’t have the ORP, I guess that I’m confused on which size to get, someone told me the rough country 3-3.5 control arms won’t work, not sure how true that is tho. And I’m not sure if the ready lift ones will work with the Bilstien 5100 set to the highest ride position.

They are correct, the rough country it for a 3-3.5” lift so at the 2.6” you’ll get out of the Bilsteins you’re better off with the readylifts.
