Details
Core 4x4's Crawl Series 4-piece rear control arm set replaces all four worn factory stamped-steel arms on the GMC Yukon XL 1500 (2007–2014). The factory arms use soft rubber bushings and a fixed length, so there's no way to re-align the rear axle or correct pinion angle after a lift or leveling kit. These Core 4x4 arms are a serious step up: DOM steel tubing and Rock Jock Johnny Joints at both ends of every arm for maximum articulation, with adjustable length to set rear axle alignment and pinion angle back to spec.
Includes: Rear upper control arms (pair) and rear lower control arms (pair); mounting hardware (bolts, nuts, and washers).
Specs:
- Upper arms — 1.5 in. o.d. × 5/16 in. wall DOM steel
- Lower arms — 1.75 in. o.d. × 5/16 in. wall DOM steel
- Joints — Rock Jock Johnny Joints, both ends (every arm)
- Adjustable length — for rear-axle alignment and pinion-angle correction
- Lift range — 0–6 in. and up
- Made in the USA
- You break it, we replace it
- Wear items (bushings, joints) — covered for 18 months
Suspension Type — Standard or Autoride (Z55): Select at checkout. Z55 trucks have factory rear air leveling; the Autoride version includes the ride-height sensor mounting tab on both rear upper arms. If you're not sure which you have, check the RPO sticker in the glove box for a Z55 code.
Notes:
- Hardware is included with your arms. If you ever need replacements down the road, the matching kit is available separately.
- Running a lift? The 5-piece rear kit (CRL-G-900-YXL-RK5) adds the adjustable track bar to recenter the axle side-to-side.
Parts:
- Upper forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint, right-hand — CE-9112N-22 (1 per upper arm, 2 for the upper pair).
- Upper forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint, left-hand — CE-9112NL-22 (1 per upper arm, 2 for the upper pair).
- Lower forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint, right-hand — CE-9114 (1 per lower arm, 2 for the lower pair).
- Lower forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint, left-hand — CE-9114L (1 per lower arm, 2 for the lower pair).
- Replacement hardware kit — CRL-G-900-RS4-HWK.
Fits:
- Chevy Tahoe (2007–2014)

Installed rear and upper control arms and track bar on my 3rd Gen 4RUNNER to align rear axle and restore factory wheel base after 3.5" lift. Car drives better than New! Improved handling cornering and overall driving. Very solid and high quality made product. Support is outstanding. Shipping extremely fast.
Thank you so much. I wish you will have something new for my car.

Not sure where to start, Products or Service or Warranty.
Products: I found Core4x4 through a very respected YouTuber in the Jeeping community. I purchased an entire set of Core4x4 Control Arms three years ago and have beat the daylights out of them and they are still in great condition. Now, I purchased another Jeep, this time for my daughter and bought yet another set of Control Arms because I know that these things can take a beating and stand up to it. I plan on replacing more parts on this TJ and my JL and will continue to buy from Core4x4.
Service: This isn't some huge name conglomerate that treats you like you're just another customer. They are quick with responses and will always make things right should something be a problem. Oh and the quickness in which they ship their products is unmatched. I bought these CAs for my TJ on Thursday, I received them on Monday. Most other manufacturers will tell you weeks, they had them to me in 2 shipping days.
Warranty: Seriously, a lifetime warranty? Yes please. Nothing more to say.
I can't say enough about how great of a company this is. I've even spoken to the owner through email a few years back on some questions that I had. Support small American built businesses.
P.S. Core 4x4, feel free to make me an ambassador and send me some swag :) .

I contacted these guys on a Saturday through email and needed some control arms by the following weekend, Spence got back with me and told me he would make sure the order got shipped out on Monday, they got busy and wasn’t able to ship the package out so he got back with me that evening and upgraded my shipping for free and shipped out the next day, only because he told me he’d make sure I’d have them by the weekend! This company sticks to their word! The customer service from these guys are unmatched and they will have another lifetime customer here!

Good company, they offer well built parts and Great customer service.
I had a couple of hang ups with my control arms that I purchased, they were very easy to work with and found the solution to make them work.

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.

Awesome product and service! I even got some of their swag because it looked pretty darn good. I will definitely be going back and would suggest this business to others looking for quality control arms. Buy local!

I have bought a bunch of sets of arms, track bars and even had custom work done by Core 4x4. Just yesterday, Spence and Cam delivered an awesome cross member they designed and built for me! All of their products have been exceptional! I have personally seen their progression with design changes/updates. They truly take pride in their work and products. Quality control is second to none! They’ve also helped me diagnose issues with different jeeps I’ve had, as well as Dodge/Rams. These guys know their stuff! Really! I trust them whole heartedly and absolutely love their products/quality of work! I’ve referred many people, and will always continue to do so. Keep up the good work Core4x4!

The parts are a massive improvement over factory. I accidentally ordered the wrong endlinks and they helped me figure out the correct size and sent me new ones.
Definitely an awesome store
