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.

The whole process was quick and painless. The products are top tier and when I reached out them for package update info, Korby Linscomb was very responsive, and got me the answers I needed the same day. Even when I emailed back to some additional info, he sent what I was looking for that same day. I love core 4x4 and will be giving them my business from now on.

I have recently come to know Core 4x4 when I purchased a Jeep XJ and was looking for a place that had dedicated XJ suspension and components. Here is what makes them different than most other shops. All of their components are top shelf quality and they back it up if you break any of it. I was able to see their shop when I picked up an order locally and was impressed with their attention to detail and how they assemble and powder coat each part. I had an issue with a shackle and needed the threaded shaft to be shorter. I called in and talked to Kaden and he told me to come by and they would shorten it for me. When I got there, Kaden and Spencer (the owner) met me and talked about options and proceeded to make the right adjustments to fit my XJ. Told me if anything changes in the future and I need additional length, they would take care of me. So what really sets them apart from others is their Customer Service. Try calling in to any other Jeep suspension or part shop and see how they treat you. Been there - done that. Will continue to do business with Core and their team. Getting that kind of service for just a shackle has me thinking I may need to replace my JT components with Core's. Thanks Guys for being helpful good humans!

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

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.

Excellent service, Prompt responses when needing technical assistance, Amazing looking parts that fit excellently. I would recommend them to anyone looking for suspension components. Also very well packaged when we received the shipment, which means no damage from shipping company!! We went with the Crawl Series double adjustable kit and it definitely looks killer on our build!!!

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.

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.

First off, I wish I knew about them sooner. The customer service is top tier. The response time is about 30 min no waiting 1-3 days to get a response. The parts are heavy-duty and look amazing. The packaging is perfect, I can't wait to hit some trails. Thanks Core4x4

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.
