Details

Core 4x4's Cruise Series rear upper control arms replace the worn factory stamped-steel arms on the Cadillac Escalade (2002–2006). The factory arms use soft rubber bushings and a fixed length, so there's no way to correct pinion angle after a lift or leveling kit. These Core 4x4 arms are a serious step up: heavier steel construction, fresh poly bushings, and adjustable length to set rear pinion angle back to spec.

They're also built to grow with your truck. When you want more articulation later, the adjustable end accepts the same forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint our Camp arms use, so you can upgrade in place without replacing the whole arm.

Includes: Rear upper control arms (pair); mounting hardware (bolts, nuts, and washers).

Specs:

  • Tubing — 1.625 in. o.d. × 3/16 in. wall steel
  • Bushings — poly, both ends
  • Adjustable length — for pinion-angle correction
  • Lift range — 0–6 in.
  • Made in the USA
  • Lifetime warranty — bend it or break it, we'll replace it
  • Wear items (bushings, joints) — covered for 18 months

Suspension Type — Factory Autoride (Z55): Chances are, your truck came with rear Autoride (Z55) from the factory — GM's air-leveling system. This part is built to match: the ride-height sensor mounting tab is included on both rear upper arms, so your factory sensors bolt right back on. Converted to coil springs — or never had air ride at all? No problem — everything fits and works exactly the same; the sensor tabs just go unused.

Notes:

  • Hardware is included with your arms. If you ever need replacements down the road, the matching kit is available separately.
  • Future upgrade: each adjustable end accepts a forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint (CE-9112N-22) — two for the pair.
  • Running a lift? The 4-piece rear set (CRS-G-800-ESC-RS4-Z55) adds the matching lower arms to replace all four rear arms in one job.

Parts:

  • Poly bushings — BSH-UPBH-CB, 9/16-in. bolt (2 per arm, 4 for the pair).
  • Replacement hardware kit — CRS-G-800-RU2-HWK.

Fits:

  • Chevy Tahoe (2000–2006)
  • Chevy Suburban 1500 (2000–2006)
  • Chevy Avalanche 1500 (2002–2006)
  • GMC Yukon / Yukon XL 1500 (2000–2006)
  • GMC Yukon Denali / XL Denali (2001–2006)
  • Cadillac Escalade / ESV / EXT (2002–2006)
  • 1500-series only. Does NOT fit 2500-series HD.

Beefy parts made and painted well, very fair pricing for what you get, and fantastic customer service to boot. Easily my favorite place to get suspension parts.

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.

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.

I couldn't have been more excited for the initial unboxing of these new Core 4x4 UCA's! They appear to be so well built and just a true quality product. Installation was a breeze and the initial testing with the forklift appears to have given me some additional flex with less binding on the rest of the components now that the geometry is back properly aligned. Time will tell how they hold up on my near future off-road adventures but I don't have any doubt that they are up to the task!

Core 4x4 excels with precision and service and keeps nothing else higher in mind. Everyone I've met at the company is very honest and down to earth, 10/10 would recommend.
