Default U joints on Lifted 09 Ram

Anyone here have any wear issues with their lifted Rams? I have approximately 12000 miles on my lift, just got mine inspected and everything looked great. No vibrations, just heard that you need to stay on top of this when you upgrade your suspension. Last thing I want is problems down the road. How many miles do you think we get out of them before changing? Thanks

It all depends on how you drive.. If like most kids would drive by barking tires then you can count on replacing u-joints fast...

Now if you drive like the average person you could expect a long life out of them..

I've been driving lifted trucks for almost 30 years and never have problems..
