I just want to run this by members here as to what they think about this .. Are they BSing me or is this another "fact" that needs to come out among the KW enthusiasts?

Upper control arms? There are also lower control arms.
Since your car is lowered it is likely your camber is too negative and out of spec. But from what I know, camber does not have a big effect on the chronic Chrysler right lead/pull problem.
Caster is the most likely fix, and/or cradle adjustment, for the right lead problem.
I also don't see why the dealer would replace your stock upper controls with stock upper control arms. This will not fix your negative camber. You would have to buy an aftermarket upper control arm with additional camber adjustment, such as Pedders or SPC Performance.
To fix the right lead/pull, the dealer usually follows these steps in order.
1) Cross rotate tires (but not possible with aftermarket directional tires)
2) Alignment
3) Cradle adjustment
Here is the latest TSB for the right lead.
