Regain Proper Caster Improve Front-End Stability

When lifting your Jeep Wrangler JL, maintaining proper caster angle is crucial for steering stability, handling, and overall drivability. Factory suspension geometry is already lacking in caster, and adding a lift can worsen the issue—leading to wandering, following ruts in the road, and a loose steering feel.

Our Cruise Series Front Upper Control Arms are designed to fine-tune caster correction, improving steering precision, high-speed stability, and tire wear. When paired with our Cruise Series Front Lower Control Arms (CRS-J-JL-FL2), this combination completely restores axle centering, suspension alignment, and caster angles, offering a full front-end suspension solution for lifted Jeeps.

Key Features Benefits

Restores proper caster angle – Adjustability allows fine-tuning of suspension geometry, eliminating wandering, pulling, and unstable steering after lifting your Jeep.
Improves steering response high-speed stability – Proper caster helps keep your steering wheel centered and reduces fatigue from constant corrections.
Heavy-duty steel construction – Built from high-strength steel tubing, these arms deliver long-lasting durability and enhanced off-road performance.
Unique U-bracket design – The axle end U-bracket mounts directly to the factory axle bushing, maintaining a secure and quiet ride.
Recommended pairing for maximum stability – Combine with our Cruise Series Front Lower Control Arms (CRS-J-JL-FL2) to fully correct caster, re-center the axle, and eliminate steering instability.

Adjustability for Lifts from 0 to 6 Inches

Whether you're at factory height or running a 6-inch lift, these fully adjustable control arms allow precise caster correction and suspension alignment. If you’re running a lift over 3 inches, pairing with our adjustable Front Lower Control Arms ensures full caster correction and axle re-centering for maximum control. For lifts beyond 6 inches, contact us for additional options.

Durable Two-Stage Powder Coating

Each control arm undergoes a two-stage powder coating process: Zinc primer base coat – Ensures maximum rust and corrosion protection, especially in harsh climates. Durable top coat – Available in 10 color options, allowing you to customize your Jeep’s suspension components while adding extra durability.

Proudly Made in the USA

Manufactured in Orem, UT, these control arms are built with 100% American-made materials to exacting quality standards. By choosing our Cruise Series, you support local manufacturing and high-quality craftsmanship.

Optional Hardware Upgrade

Our Cruise Series Front Upper Control Arms are designed to reuse your Jeep’s factory mounting hardware. If your existing bolts are rusted, worn, or difficult to remove, we offer optional Grade 8 hardware kits separately for a hassle-free installation and added durability.

For the best results, pair with our Cruise Series Front Lower Control Arms (CRS-J-JL-FL2) to create a complete front-end suspension upgrade, eliminating wandering, rut-following, and excessive steering corrections.

Great Experience. I wanted to make changes to my order and Korby was more than willing to work with me to get everything corrected. Hope to deal with these guys again in the future.

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.

The folks at Core 4X4 are always wonderful to deal with. They explain your options and never pressure or rush things. The quality of the Core Control Arms is top shelf, especially if your goal is to stop wheel hop. I recommend Core 4x4 without reservation ! ! !

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.

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.

Core 4x4 has outstanding products at a fair price and unmatched customer service. When you call Korby, it's like talking with a friend. Very cool and helpul! I ordered some custom control arms, but from the wrong product line and they were super cool about returning them and upgrading to a better "Crawl" series. Only charged the difference between the two products. They paid all the return shipping and sent the uprgaded arms super quick. It was only a couple days. Awesome!! I couldn't be happier with the transaction👍🏼 Also, these control arms are stout and take a beating. I run heck out my Jeep in the rocks and desert. No problems whatsoever. Thanks Core 4x4, ya'll are welcome at my campfire anytime! Jake T. Pleasant Hill, Or.

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.

I just finished installing the Peak 2.0 Front Suspension system with the Core 4x4 Blue Tacoma Rear Suspension system on my 2024 TRD Offroad Premium Tacoma. The two upgraded suspension systems really made a difference in how the ride feels, whether we’re off-road or on the road. A big thank you to Korby and the team at Core 4x4 for their support and for getting the shipping sorted out so quickly!

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.

Great company, who worked with me on shipping parts, to arrive in time for a show, when I explained my concern of possibly not getting the control arms in time. Quality is amazing on the part, affordable price for what you get, and the powdercoat is top notch, not a single issue with this product, would buy again.
