Unmatched Control for Maximum Stability Performance

Upgrade your Ram 1500 (2009–Present) with the Trail Series Fixed Rear Upper Control Arms, engineered for enhanced traction, axle stability, and improved ride comfort. Built to outperform factory components and competing aftermarket options, these control arms provide exceptional strength and suspension performance.

Whether you're towing, launching off the line, or tackling rugged terrain, this upgrade reduces wheel hop, eliminates axle deflection, and enhances power transfer, ensuring a more controlled and predictable driving experience.

Key Features Benefits

  • Built for Strength, Comfort Longevity – Constructed from high-strength steel tubing, these control arms feature a high-quality polyurethane bushing at one end and a Rock Jock Johnny Joint at the other, offering a perfect balance of articulation, durability, and NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) reduction.
  • Factory-Length Design for Seamless Fit – Designed to match OEM control arm length, making them a direct replacement for factory arms, ideal for stock, leveled, or lowered setups (up to 2” drop).
  • Eliminates Wheel Hop Maximizes Traction – Reduces axle movement under acceleration, preventing loss of traction and instability, especially under heavy loads or performance applications.
  • Superior Handling Predictable Steering Response – Enhances suspension geometry, minimizing unwanted flex, and improving cornering precision, braking stability, and towing control.
  • Recommended Pairing: For total rear axle stability, improved traction, and full suspension control, pair these upper control arms with the Trail Series Fixed Rear Lower Control Arms (TRL-R-15-2009-FXD-RL2).

Eliminate Wheel Hop Improve Ride Quality

Factory rubber bushings can create excessive preload on the axle, leading to wheel hop, instability, and inconsistent traction. The Trail Series Fixed Rear Upper Control Arms solve this by incorporating a hybrid joint design, allowing for free and controlled axle movement.

  • Johnny Joint – Delivers unmatched articulation and longevity.
  • Polyurethane Bushing – Effectively reduces NVH, making for a smoother, more stable ride.

When paired with our Trail Series Fixed Rear Lower Control Arms (TRL-R-15-2009-FXD-RL2), you gain full rear suspension control, ensuring your Ram 1500 stays planted, predictable, and responsive in any driving condition.

Highly Durable Two-Stage Powder Coating

Every Trail Series Control Arm undergoes a two-stage powder coating process for superior durability and corrosion resistance: Zinc primer base coat for maximum rust protection. Durable topcoat available in 10 color options to match your build.

Optional Hardware Upgrade

These control arms are designed for installation using factory hardware, but for added durability and a more secure fit, we offer an optional Grade 8 hardware kit (sold separately). This upgrade strengthens installation points and eliminates the risk of shifting under heavy loads.

Proudly Made in the USA

All CORE 4X4 components are designed, manufactured, and tested in Orem, UT, ensuring top-tier craftsmanship and strict quality control. Keeping production local allows us to maintain precise engineering standards, deliver industry-leading durability, and support American jobs.

The Trail Series Fixed Rear Upper Control Arms are an essential upgrade for Ram 1500 owners looking to eliminate wheel hop, improve ride quality, and enhance handling stability. With high-strength construction, reduced NVH, and superior suspension control, this upgrade delivers reliability and performance for any driving condition.

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.

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

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.

First time buying from Korby @ Core 4x4 and it’s being nothing short of a great experience. I bought the non adjustable Trail kit for my 5th Gen Ram 1500 with a 2” lift. The welds look great, nice powder coat finish and quality bushing. Had some trouble fitting the grease nipples due to the powder coating but a thread tap would fix that. They fit easily and perform great. I felt the improvement straight away. No more wheel hop on hard acceleration which was my main reason for the purchase. I was missing some smaller bushings needed for the 5th Gen and Korby’s custom service was on point, with responsive emails and mailing out the missing parts straight away. Very happy with their products and customer service. Highly recommended company👌🏽

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!
