Essential Vehicle Stability

Enhance your Jeep Wrangler TJ or LJ’s handling, stability, and axle alignment with the Cruise Series Rear Track Bar. Designed for 1997-2006 models, this track bar ensures your rear axle remains properly centered, reducing instability, body roll, and rear-end wandering on- and off-road. It’s a must-have upgrade for lifted vehicles, particularly those dealing with steering drift or axle misalignment.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Superior Axle Centering – Eliminates rear-end wandering and ensures proper alignment for improved handling and stability.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction – Built from 1.5" OD .313" wall heavy-duty steel tubing, reinforced with high-quality polyurethane bushings for durability and smooth operation.
  • Recommended Pairing – For complete rear suspension control and precise pinion angle adjustment, pair with our Cruise Series Rear Control Arm Set (CRS-J-TJLJ-RS4).

Perfect Fit for Lifted Jeeps

When lifting your TJ or LJ, the axle shifts laterally, impacting alignment and suspension geometry. Our adjustable rear track bar corrects this issue, re-centering the axle for better drivability, reduced tire wear, and improved suspension function.

  • For 0 to 3-inch lifts, this track bar is a direct bolt-in upgrade.
  • For 3+ inch lifts, or vehicles with an SYE, a corrected axle mount is required due to the steeper pinion angle rotation and clearance issues between the bar and the factory mount.

Two-Stage Powder Coating

To ensure maximum durability and corrosion resistance, all track bars undergo a two-stage powder coating process: Zinc primer base coat for superior rust protection. Durable top coat, available in 10 color options, allowing customization to match your Jeep’s look.

Made in the USA

Proudly manufactured in Orem, UT, our Cruise Series components are built with the highest quality materials and craftsmanship, supporting American-made manufacturing standards.

Optional Hardware Upgrade

Designed for easy installation using factory hardware, but for those dealing with rusted or seized bolts, we offer optional Grade 8 hardware kits, available separately for a hassle-free install.

For complete rear suspension tuning, pair it with our Cruise Series Rear Control Arm Set (CRS-J-TJLJ-RS4) and experience a fully optimized ride.

  • Vehicle Fitment: Jeep Wrangler TJ/LJ 97-06 – Ensures precise rear axle alignment, eliminating rear-end wandering and enhancing vehicle stability for improved handling both on-road and off-road.

  • 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.

Have full upper/lower CA set on both front and rear axles on a 96 ZJ. These are the rubber bushing sets not joint sets. I have beat the hell out it in the Nevada desert for 2 years and has been great. I don’t go fast but I do articulate suspension a lot. Super solid and haven’t any issues. Just inspected the entire set recently due to some banging under it. Turns out the banging is lower rear shock bushings. Inspected each CA along the way nothing. Aside from dirt and obviously winter roads and what not still in excellent condition, bushings are solid like the day they were installed. I’ll add that I’m about tapped on a short arm at 4.25(less with settle) so the front CA’s get beat on just from that, still they’re like new. Paint is great condition, this set is red. I would definitely buy again. Another plus for me, Utah isn’t local necessarily, but it’s nice to support businesses closer to me.

I meant to put this reviewing about a year ago now, but ever since I’ve had the core 4 x 4, upper and lower control arms on my 2017 ram 1500, they have worked flawlessly leave been on many offering chips, and I’ll definitely be buying new accessories from them in the future and their new upper control arms that they’re offering for all of the ram trucks. Fantastic customer service fantastic health very automotive, off-road, friendly, and any aftermarket thing for your truck or SUV that they currently have!

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.

I ordered the jeep xj long arm lift kit. Control arms showed up first they turned out amazing!! Had some issues with the powder coating on the cross member and sent korby and the team at core4x4 an email. They got right on making me another cross member and sending it out. I appreciate all the help they've given me along the way. Very fast response thru emails. Build quality seems to be pretty dang nice!! Can't wait to install it and enjoy it!

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.

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.
