Because people will pay that much. And the materials and manufacturing takes longer, and is more expensive. Delta joints are a lot better than standard ball joints. You can get tubular uppers way cheaper.

Tuff County UCA's for $350

Freedom Offroad UCA's for $360

Those 2 are designed for trucks that are leveled or have a 5-6 " lift kit. They won't work with a stock truck, or one with a 4" lift since they are designed to correct angles for leveled trucks.
