The Special Sauce:
- HOUSING
- SAE 1045 Solid Steel Forged Housing:This is unequivocally the best carbon alloy steel for this application.
- Knurled Housings:The preferred design for aftermarket installations.
- CNC Machined Housing:Make our parts and bearings dimensionally perfect, eliminating any die wear issues.
- BALL STUDS
- SAE 4140 hot forged Chromoly Ball Studs: for strongest possible metallurgy.
- Plunger Design Stud:Unique to Jeep and Dodge, allows up and down movement with no side-to-side movement.
- Induction Heat Treated Ball Studs:provides a very precise heat treatment to the exact depth and location we want it.
- Rolled Threads: are made by pressing the shape of the threads into the ball stud instead of cutting. This strengthens the threads instead of weakening them and allows for easy movement of hardware. This ain't no Ikea furniture!
- Step Threads :allows for very easy movement of hardware on install and superior holding when torqued (installer choice).
- BEARING DESIGN
- Carbon Bearing Design:Used mainly in Jeep and Dodge upper ball joints is the solver of all things wobbly. Like all of our product.
- BOOTS
- CR Rubber Boots:The most durable material for undercar applications.
- Pancake Boot
- HARDWARE
- Grade 8 - Class 10.9 Hardware:Superior tensile strength.
- Castle Nut:Industry standard where high vibration loads occur.
- LUBRICATION
- Pre-threaded Zerk Housing:If you have ever installed a MOOG ball joint without a pre-threaded zerk fitting you will understand what a simple but great feature this is. Another installer fav.
- Greaseable:Because it should be.
- Pre-Greased:Just in case you forget, we have you covered.
- Gull Winged Grease Grooves:Allows for improved lubrication disbursement.
- Zerk Fittings:Included for every application.

I meant to put this reviewing about a year ago now, but ever since I’ve had the core 4 x 4, upper and lower control arms on my 2017 ram 1500, they have worked flawlessly leave been on many offering chips, and I’ll definitely be buying new accessories from them in the future and their new upper control arms that they’re offering for all of the ram trucks. Fantastic customer service fantastic health very automotive, off-road, friendly, and any aftermarket thing for your truck or SUV that they currently have!

The parts are a massive improvement over factory. I accidentally ordered the wrong endlinks and they helped me figure out the correct size and sent me new ones.
Definitely an awesome store

I have nothing but good things to say about Core 4x4. I have the crawler series on my JKU and we take it all over the place. These parts handle everything we throw at them.

Excellent service, Prompt responses when needing technical assistance, Amazing looking parts that fit excellently. I would recommend them to anyone looking for suspension components. Also very well packaged when we received the shipment, which means no damage from shipping company!! We went with the Crawl Series double adjustable kit and it definitely looks killer on our build!!!

I've been having trouble with the track bar (on my 2nd gen Dodge) since I installed the 3rd gen Synergy adapter bracket and a 3rd gen stock bar.. oddly, they call it a '3rd gen bracket' and the stock 3rd gen bar doesn't quite fit, making contact with the bracket. I had attempted to clearance the bracket but it was still making contact and I could feel it over large bumps.
I reached out to a lot of companies, but Core 4x4 offered to make a custom bar for the application with adjustability and dual Johnny joints. The first pass on it didn't work but they sent me out another passenger side end that made it fit incredibly well.
This was all done solely over email/descriptions/pictures/measurements.
Bar is super high quality and heavy duty, made in the US by a family owned company and carries a lifetime warranty. The customer service was responsive and superb, and the price was a lot less than I expected.

Great long arm kit with everything else I needed as well! They worked with me to ensure that I was getting an upgraded components kit just like I wanted. Fast shipping with some of the best packaging that I have ever seen. Nothing was scratched or missing and this kit is even more impressive than the videos or website can show. Powder coating looks great with no issues.
I would highly recommend CORE 4x4 to anyone looking for a great quality kit.

I don’t write reviews often, but Core 4x4 absolutely earned this one.
I recently ordered leaf spring mounts and realized after the fact that I messed up my order. Totally my mistake. Instead of giving me the runaround or pointing at a return policy, Core 4x4 emailed me back and forth, worked through exactly what I was doing with my build, and made sure I ended up with the correct parts.
That kind of customer service is rare these days — especially in the off-road world where a lot of companies stop caring once the order is placed.
The parts themselves are exactly what you hope for: solid, well-made, confidence-inspiring hardware that looks like it belongs under a vehicle that actually gets used. You can tell these are designed by people who understand suspension geometry and real-world abuse, not just CAD screenshots.
Mistakes happen — especially on custom or modified builds — and Core 4x4 handled mine like pros. Fast responses, clear communication, and a genuine effort to help me get it right.
If you’re on the fence: don’t be. Core 4x4 is the kind of company you want backing your build — the kind that treats customers like fellow enthusiasts, not order numbers.
