Optimize Suspension Geometry for Lifts From 0 to 6 Inches

Take your Jeep Wrangler JL’s suspension to the next level with the Crawl Series Front Upper Control Arms (CRL-J-JL-FU2). Designed to pair with Crawl Series Front Lower Control Arms for lifts over 3 inches, these upper control arms ensure precise suspension geometry, improving axle alignment, drivability, and off-road articulation. While not necessary for smaller lifts, these control arms are essential for maintaining proper performance and stability on Jeeps with significant suspension modifications.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Essential for Lifts Over 3 Inches – Designed to work in harmony with Crawl Series Front Lower Control Arms, these upper control arms provide the necessary adjustments to correct overall suspension geometry for larger lifts.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction – Crafted from robust 1.5” OD DOM Tubing with a 5/16” wall thickness, these control arms offer the strength and durability needed to withstand extreme off-road conditions and heavy-duty use.
  • Johnny Joints for Superior Flexibility – Featuring a Johnny Joint at the adjusting end and a U-bracket at the axle end, these arms allow smooth, bind-free articulation for enhanced off-road performance.
  • Fully Adjustable for Suspension Tuning – Tailored for lifts from 0 to 6 inches, these arms enable precise alignment and axle positioning when paired with lower control arms, ensuring optimal handling and stability for Jeeps with larger lifts.

Two-Stage Powder Coating

Each Front Upper Control Arm is finished with a rigorous two-stage powder coating process. The zinc primer base provides exceptional corrosion resistance, while the topcoat—available in 10 customizable colors—adds additional protection and a stylish finish to match your Jeep’s look.

Made in the USA

Proudly manufactured in Orem, UT, the Crawl Series Front Upper Control Arms reflect CORE 4X4’s dedication to American craftsmanship. By managing production in-house, we maintain the highest standards of quality and support local industries while offering competitive pricing.

Optional Hardware Upgrade

Installation is straightforward using factory hardware. For vehicles with rusted or stubborn bolts, optional Grade 8 hardware kits are available separately to make the process seamless and hassle-free.

 

Each rebuild kit includes all necessary components to replace and restore wearable parts.

Recieved warrenty exchanges for my control arms last night couldnt be happier!!! Lets talk about the arms tho! Great quality arms in multiple styles and colors!!! I purchased the teir 3 short arns for my 98 xj. I can say that they setoff nicely so my 35 inch tires do not rub! As long as you can get a photo or video of broken hardware core will take care of you. The body of the arm is bulletproof. However make sure to maintain and grease the joints regularly as with any greaseable joint and they shouldkast forever. I had a few problems arise a year after purchase and after some troubleshooting spence was able to help get me the correct parts to get back on the road. I recommend this setup to any and all jeepers looking to get away from the stock arm setup. Alltogether i am Very happy with the performace of my control arms!!!! Mechanic and bodyman of 12 years and my first choice for quality control arms!!

I recently ordered a set of control arms from Core 4x4, and the entire experience was absolutely top-notch from start to finish. The ordering process was smooth, the parts arrived quickly, and the control arms themselves are extremely high quality—solid construction, great finish, and clearly built to last. I also want to give a special shout-out to Korby, the guy I spoke with during the process. His customer service was amazing. He went above and beyond to make sure I got exactly what I needed, answered all my questions, and made the whole experience stress-free. You don’t see service like that very often these days. If you’re looking for high-quality suspension components backed by truly exceptional customer service, I highly recommend Core 4x4. I’ll definitely be buying from them again.

Small business, family owned, made in the USA, lifetime warranty. Purchased Tier 3 control arms and rear track bar for a 2006 Jeep LJ. Simple website and easy to contact over phone and email. I had some technical questions and they were happy to answer them. They allow local pickup and were built to order same week. The order was wrapped and ready when I walked in and even gave a tour of the shop. They abrasive blast all raw materials to achieve a better surface profile for powdercoat to adhere and create a smooth, durable finish. I also noticed several CNC machines and a robotic welder they use for all their parts. A small outfit with a robotic welder? Their concern for quality is obvious and it shows in the parts they make. Very impressed. Happy to do business with these guys.

I met a couple of the Core 4x4 guys at the Salt Lake Offroad Expo and decided to try them out after noticing one of my control arm bushings was disintegrated. I called to discuss parts on Thursday and I was leaving for a trip on Saturday. These guys built my control arms and had them ready to be picked up Friday, 24 hours later. The parts seem to be great quality and they charged me nothing extra to have them painted. These guys were extremely helpful and without them my trip probably would have been cancelled. looking forward to testing out the arms on my next trip to Moab.

2022 I ordered a 2023 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon in High Velocity yellow. Without any hesitation I knew I was going with Core 4x4’s 16pc Camp series suspension, powder coated in yellow. Compliments were a given from any and everyone that looked under my jeep. So beefy, I may have left some yellow paint on the rocks from Maine to Florida, but no bends or breaks. Customer service has been perfect each and every time I have needed something. Their warranty is top notch! Their communication is also wonderful. Might upgrade to the Crawl Series control arms where the Johnny joints are on both sides. Great all around company and a great team to troubleshoot your issue and come to a conclusion. Nothing bad to say about this company. Just love this suspension.

I ordered a part for my 03 Jeep TJ and all I can say is wow! Korby at Core 4x4 is a total rockstar!! There was a glitch with my payment and within minutes, Korby reached out to me to get it fixed, then sent my receipt with the tracking number. I lost the number and reached out to him during the Holidays and got a rapid response with the number again. I can’t say enough about the customer service and the quality of parts. Thank you!!

These guys are great. You can get them on the phone for support. This important and is not always the case with other custom parts builders. Their control arms are bomb proof and offer plenty of options. You can get real genuine Currie Johnny joints without paying the price for Currie arms.
