2027 Ram TRX Fabricated Upper Arm Kit

Description

The factory upper ball joint is the part that gives up first when a TRX front end gets worked hard. This kit replaces it with a 1.5" uniball inside a fabricated 4130 chromoly arm, and puts 7/8" FK rod ends at the frame so caster and camber become things you set rather than things you accept.

CAD designed, MIG welded in rigid fixtures, and built in-house at Foutz Motorsports in Mesa, Arizona.

What the Kit Changes

  • 1.5" uniball in place of the upper ball joint — far more articulation and load capacity than the factory joint, and a wear item you can replace on its own
  • 7/8" FK rod ends at the frame — adjustable for caster and camber, instead of living inside the range the factory adjusters allow
  • 4130 chromoly construction, MIG welded in fixtures so every set fits the truck the same way
  • 17-4 stainless steel spacers at the pivots to hold off corrosion without giving up strength
  • Works with the factory spindle, and with fixed pivot lower arm setups
  • Keeps the adaptive shocks working — includes the mount for the wheel position sensor

Small changes to caster and suspension geometry were designed in, which is what sharpens the driving feel rather than just adding strength.

Fabricated or Billet — Which Upper Arm

Both replace the factory upper control arm, both use a uniball at the spindle in place of the ball joint, and both are adjustable at the frame. The difference is construction and appearance.

  • Fabricated — 4130 chromoly tube and plate, MIG welded. This page.
  • Billet — CNC machined from solid aluminum, available raw or anodized. Choose it if the look under the truck matters to you. See the 2027 billet upper control arm kit.

What's in the Kit

  • (2) Fabricated upper arms with 1.5" uniball assemblies and 7/8" rod ends at the frame
  • (1) Hardware kit with all needed spacers, 12-point grade 8 bolts, TRX-size upper ball joint adapters and the sensor arm mount kit

Fitment

2027 Ram 1500 TRX, factory spindle.

The 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 TRX is a different generation and uses the 2021-2024 fabricated upper arm kit. There was no TRX built between those two runs, so a part listed for 2021-2024 does not carry forward to the 2027 truck.

Questions

Will the adaptive suspension still work?

Yes. The kit includes the mount for the wheel position sensor, which is what the shock control module reads. Leave the sensor off and the truck will not read front suspension position correctly.

Do I need an alignment afterward?

Yes. The rod ends at the frame are how caster and camber get set, so plan on an alignment once the arms are on.

Do I need to change the spindle?

No. The kit is designed around the factory spindle and includes the TRX-size upper ball joint adapters.

Will these work with fixed pivot lower arms?

Yes, the kit works with fixed pivot lower arm setups.

Does this fit a 2021-2024 TRX?

No. See the Fitment section above for that truck's version.
