Optimized Rear Suspension Control

Upgrade your Jeep Wrangler TJ or LJ (1997-2006) with the Cruise Series Rear Upper Control Arms, designed to correct pinion angle, recenter the rear axle, and eliminate driveline vibrations. These control arms provide greater strength and adjustability over stock components, making them a must-have upgrade for lifted Jeeps looking to improve handling and drivetrain longevity.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Pinion Angle Correction – Properly adjusts pinion angle to eliminate driveline vibrations and reduce wear on drivetrain components.
  • Rear Axle Recentering – Ensures accurate axle alignment to maintain stability and handling after lifting your Jeep.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction – Built from heavy-duty steel tubing for unmatched durability in on- and off-road conditions.
  • Polyurethane Bushings – Provides superior responsiveness, vibration absorption, and longevity over standard rubber bushings.
  • Recommended Pairing – For complete rear-end suspension alignment and axle centering, pair with our Cruise Series Rear Lower Control Arms (CRS-J-TJLJ-RL2).

Precision Adjustability

Our fully adjustable Rear Upper Control Arms are engineered to fine-tune pinion angle and re-align the rear axle. With a range supporting 0 to 6 inches of lift, they provide crucial adjustments to optimize handling and drivetrain function. If your lift exceeds 6 inches, contact us for additional options.

Two-Stage Powder Coating

For maximum durability and corrosion resistance, all control arms undergo a two-stage powder coating process: Zinc primer base coat – Provides rust protection. Durable top coat – Available in 10 customizable colors for a long-lasting, stylish finish.

Made in the USA

Proudly manufactured in Orem, UT, our Cruise Series components support American craftsmanship and are built to the highest performance and durability standards.

Optional Hardware Upgrade

Installation is straightforward using factory hardware, but for those dealing with rusted or seized bolts, we offer optional Grade 8 hardware kits, available separately for a seamless installation process.

Enhance your Jeep Wrangler TJ or LJ’s drivability and durability today!

 

  • Vehicle Fitment: Jeep Wrangler TJ/LJ 97-06 – Improves rear suspension geometry by correcting pinion angle, reducing driveline stress, and ensuring a smoother ride on- and off-road.

I've been having trouble with the track bar (on my 2nd gen Dodge) since I installed the 3rd gen Synergy adapter bracket and a 3rd gen stock bar.. oddly, they call it a '3rd gen bracket' and the stock 3rd gen bar doesn't quite fit, making contact with the bracket. I had attempted to clearance the bracket but it was still making contact and I could feel it over large bumps. I reached out to a lot of companies, but Core 4x4 offered to make a custom bar for the application with adjustability and dual Johnny joints. The first pass on it didn't work but they sent me out another passenger side end that made it fit incredibly well. This was all done solely over email/descriptions/pictures/measurements. Bar is super high quality and heavy duty, made in the US by a family owned company and carries a lifetime warranty. The customer service was responsive and superb, and the price was a lot less than I expected.

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.

Bought a new 2019 Ram 1500. Had bad rear wheel hop since new, got all four core 4x4 control arms and it fixed the issue. Thanks

First off: Korby, the gentleman that helped me decide on which kit to go with is EASILY the nicest, and most patient person I’ve dealt with, when ordering parts for this build. Second: the quality of the product is INSANE! These parts are so nicely fabricated, then powder coated for extra longevity, and they even offer an aluminum upgrade in some cases (which I went with, to save weight). Having said all of this, the most impressive thing was the lead time. These parts are build to order, and I literally ordered my suspension one week ago, today! Yes, they built, powder coated, packaged, shipped my suspension components (RAM 1500 Track rear trailing arm full set in 7075 aluminum, and front upper control arms), AND they arrived, all within a week! Granted, that I’m only one state away, but WOW!!! One week?! Amazing! So, in sort: excellent products, which arrived excellently packaged (no damage, an boxes not over-stuffed with heavy suspension parts; three boxes total, as opposed to one super heavy one…my back thanks you), super quickly, and customer service that ANY business would be envious of….so, if you’re in the market, absolutely go with 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

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.

Very beefy items for a very reasonable price.  Personally have CORE rear track bar and all upper control arms for my 04 Jeep TJ.  Had a slight issue with control arm length and they went above and beyond to swap jam nuts to get me where I needed to be.  Really have to appreciate a company like this.

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.
