Lift Your Jeep Wrangler JK for a Bold Look and Improved Performance

Upgrade your Jeep Wrangler JK with the CORE 4X4 Cruise Series Lift Kit, the perfect entry-level solution for better stance, improved handling, and enhanced off-road capability. This kit allows you to run 33-inch tires with no modifications and 35-inch tires with minor trimming, giving your Jeep a more aggressive look while maintaining a comfortable and controlled ride.

Beyond aesthetics, this lift kit helps correct caster deficiencies that can cause wandering and instability, especially after lifting your Jeep. This kit will provide approximately 1.5" of lift on 4-door Jeeps and approximately 2.5" of lift on 2-door Jeeps. 

Note: New rear end links are included in the kit with the intention of using the factory rear end links for the front sway bar. They have the same mounting specs as the front end links, but are a few inches longer. If you would like new end links for the front the part number is CRS-J-JK-FEL2

Key Features Benefits

  • Ideal for Running Larger Tires – Supports 33-inch tires with no trimming and 35-inch tires with minor modifications, providing the perfect stance upgrade.
  • Triple-Rate Coil Springs – Ensures a smooth and controlled ride with progressive spring rates that adapt to different terrains.
  • Corrects Caster Angle Improves Steering Stability – Paired with Cruise Series Front Lower Control Arms, this kit reduces wandering and improves highway drivability.
  • Increased Ground Clearance – Navigate rough terrain with confidence, reducing undercarriage contact with obstacles.
  • Optimized Ride Quality – Shock absorbers matched to lift height provide the perfect balance of comfort and control.
  • Easy Bolt-On Installation – No major modifications required for a hassle-free upgrade.

Durable Two-Stage Powder Coating

The Cruise Series Front Lower Control Arms undergo a two-stage powder coating process to ensure long-lasting durability and resistance to corrosion. The first stage applies a zinc primer base coat, creating a strong barrier against rust and environmental wear. The second stage features a durable topcoat, available in 10 color options, allowing you to customize the look of your suspension components while adding an additional layer of protection.

Made in the USA

Manufactured in Orem, UT, this lift kit is built with high-quality American craftsmanship and locally sourced materials, ensuring durability and reliability.

Complete Hardware Included

This kit includes all necessary installation hardware, eliminating the need for additional purchases.

I have nothing but great things to say about this company and their customer service. If you like American made products backed by warranty and amazing customer support, this is the company for you. I have a Lexus GX470 and love their rear control arms.

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!!

We have all shopped places where the person on the phone makes you feel like they don't have the time to talk to you the customer or answer your questions. I can tell you first hand that's not Core 4x4. They have the best customer service I have seen so far. They have taken the time to respond to all of my questions in a very prompt and professional manner, taking the time to answer each and every question I have had. Lets put it this way if Core 4x4 sells a product I am wanting for my truck I will buy it from them, I highly recommend Core 4x4.

Amazing service. Bought a track bar through Americantrucks.com and they sent it with the wrong size bushing sleeve. Korby at Core 4x4 was quick to get me the correct size and very responsive. Will definitely be using more of their stuff.

First of I just want to say Great customer service korby Has helped me from the start and has not let me down! Reached out to him again today and he was able to warranty some parts out for me. As far as the quality of the parts.. excellent! The build quality is great. I can definitely tell a Difference from the cheap oem rear control arms to these and the pan hard bar. Color, From what I can tell it’s super durable been through a few mud holes on top of the daily road grime and after a quick wipe they still pop! Overall I recommend. Customer service is everything for me and it’s definitely there at Core 4x4.

Great products they sell, got a crawl series long arm kit for my xj and it has held up quite nice, they are beefy, and for what ever reason they fail it has a great warranty with a customer service to match, when someone asks what control arm kit to buy I always recommend core 4x4
