Enhanced Suspension Control for Unrivaled Performance

Upgrade your Jeep Cherokee XJ (1984-2001) and Jeep Comanche MJ (1986-1992) with the Crawl Series Front Upper Control Arms, designed to improve axle stability, handling, and suspension articulation. Whether you're tackling rugged off-road terrain or enjoying a smooth highway drive, these control arms enhance your vehicle's strength, flexibility, and durability.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Heavy-Duty DOM Tubing Construction – Built from 1.5" OD .313" wall DOM tubing, delivering unmatched durability and strength for extreme off-road conditions.
  • Johnny Joint for Maximum Flexibility – Features a Johnny Joint at the adjusting end, allowing for smooth articulation, reduced bushing bind, and greater suspension travel.
  • Secure Axle Connection – Equipped with a 1/4-inch U-bracket at the axle end, ensuring a solid connection to the factory axle-mounted bushing for long-lasting reliability.
  • Recommended Pairing – For a complete suspension upgrade, pair these upper control arms with the Crawl Series Front Lower Control Arms (CRL-J-XJMJ-FL2) to maximize axle stability and handling precision.

Two-Stage Powder Coating for Maximum Protection

To ensure long-lasting durability and corrosion resistance, each control arm undergoes a two-stage powder coating process. A zinc primer base coat provides superior rust protection, while the top coat—available in 10 color options—adds an extra layer of defense and customization.

Proudly Made in the USA

Manufactured in Orem, UT, the Crawl Series Front Upper Control Arms are built to the highest standards of American craftsmanship, ensuring superior quality, strength, and long-term durability.

Optional Hardware Upgrade

Designed for straightforward bolt-on installation, these control arms utilize factory hardware for a hassle-free setup. For those dealing with rusted or stubborn bolts, optional Grade 8 hardware kits are available separately for a seamless installation.


  • Vehicle Fitment: Jeep Cherokee XJ 84-01, Jeep Comanche MJ 86-92 – Improves axle control, enhances front-end stability, and ensures consistent handling for lifted Jeeps.

  • CORE Advantage: Corrects caster angle for better steering precision, reducing wandering while maintaining the flexibility needed for off-road articulation.

  • Adjustability: Designed for lifts from 0 to 6 inches, allowing precise axle alignment, optimizing pinion angle, and improving overall suspension geometry.

  • Construction: Heavy-duty 1.5” OD 5/16” wall DOM tubing, Johnny Joint at the adjusting end, and a ¼” U-bracket at the axle end for maximum durability and smooth suspension movement.

  • Two-Stage Powder Coating: Zinc primer base and top coat available in 10 vibrant colors protect against corrosion and allow for personalized styling of your rig.

  • Warranty and Origin: Proudly manufactured in the United States, our product includes a lifetime warranty on all non-wear items, providing you with confidence and peace of mind in your purchase.

Absolutely incredible family owned business. I asked to pick up my order since I’m local and they came in on a weekend to accommodate. Had to make some adjustments to parts and took the time to make sure it was perfect. Parts are incredible quality. If you have a Jeep, do not hesitate to support this local business.

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.

I broke a grease fitting off in my end link. I thought I was going to have to buy a new one. Reached out to Core 4x4 and wham! bam! They fixed it and sent it back with 2 day shipping. Got it a day early even. If they couldn't fix it they were going to send me a new one. Now that's customer service! They are now a permanent part of my garage. Thank you Core 4x4!

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 want to share a truly positive experience. I ordered a car kit consisting of two packages, but unfortunately one was lost during shipping with UPS. The situation could have become complicated... but it didn't. The company manager was extremely helpful and professional: he personally followed up on the situation and did everything he could to resolve the issue, even sending me the package again without hesitation. It's rare to find such attentive and reliable customer service these days. My sincere congratulations on your professionalism and commitment: that makes all the difference.

I’m extremely impressed with Core 4x4. The quality of their parts is outstanding — everything feels solid, well‑built, and engineered with real attention to detail. Shipping was fast and everything arrived perfectly packaged. Their customer service is just as good as their products: responsive, helpful, and genuinely committed to making sure you get exactly what you need. Overall, a top‑tier experience. I’ll definitely be buying from them again. Specially thank you Mr. Linscomb from Core 4x4. Arturo M.

I have a 2016 RAM 1500 Crew Cab and I replaced the rear upper and lower control arms also the pan hard track bar and also the sway bar and links for the rear with all I had the articulating bushings. The vehicle now has no body role. They are absolutely incredible if you get the control arms you gotta get the CORE 4 x 4sway bar end links don’t don’t try and be cheap and get Moog or something else you got to get articulating bushings get the core 4 x 4 ones they are the best. My truck drives now through the canyons like a BMW. I have Fox high-performance shocks on there as well with all the CORE 4 x 4 suspension parts and they are amazing. Well worth the money I would highly recommend anybody thinking about CORE 4 x 4 go with CORE 4X4 and if you can go with their articulating bushings, they’re unbelievable drives better now than my Escalades. Well planted no body role and smooth on the Highway unbelievable the difference they all made!! THANKS AGAIN CORE 4x4!!!!

Outstanding experience! I asked Core to build me a set of custom control arms that were larger/heavier than they normally build. They gladly accepted the challenge and turned out an expertly crafted and super strong product ahead of schedule. Fit and finish are excellent. Spence and Cameron were a pleasure to work with every step of the way. And all of this for a very reasonable price. I highly recommend these guys!

I bought the 16pc Cruise Series Adjustable Control Arm, Track Bar, Steering, End Link Kit to replace a worn budget 4" lift on my used JKU. These are top quality parts; very solid. Customer service is unsurpassed. They even matched prices on my order placed before the tax day sale. I made an error in ordering a drag link flip kit; they were quick to help me fix this too. There's peace of mind knowing these components are made in the USA. Thank you. 👍👍
