Why Builders Choose CORE 4X4

Warranty facts, not marketing language.

vs. MetalCloak

Their “lifetime” language refers to their service model. Actual parts warranty: 1 year. Ours: lifetime.

vs. Teraflex

Skip a maintenance interval? Their warranty voids. Ours doesn’t.

vs. Clayton Off Road

Clayton warrants their Johnny Joints for 90 days. We cover ours for life.

Enhanced Suspension Performance for Your Jeep Cherokee XJ

Upgrade your Jeep Cherokee XJ with the Crawl Series Long Arm Upgrade Kit, designed to improve suspension travel, axle stability, and overall ride quality. Unlike radius-style long arms that create single points of failure, this long arm design features both long lower and upper control arms, providing superior strength, articulation, and ground clearance for off-road and on-road performance.

What's Included?

  • Long Lower Control Arms (2)
  • Long Upper Control Arms (2)
  • 1/4-Inch Plate Steel Brackets and Crossmember
  • 3-Piece High-Clearance Crossmember for Drivetrain Access

Key Features and Benefits

  • Long Arm Design – Enhances suspension articulation, improves ride quality, and eliminates binding issues found in short-arm setups.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction – Made from .313-inch wall DOM tubing for exceptional strength and durability in extreme conditions.
  • High-Clearance Crossmember – Improves obstacle clearance while maintaining drivetrain accessibility.
  • Adjustable for Various Lift Heights – Designed to work with lifts from 2 inches and up, making it an ideal low center of gravity (LCG) option for enhanced stability.
  • 100% Bolt-On Installation – Features bolt-on installation with optional weld surfaces for additional reinforcement.

Built for Strength and Performance

The Crawl Series Long Arm Upgrade Kit is engineered to provide maximum articulation and control. By utilizing long upper and lower control arms, this kit allows for a smoother suspension cycle, reducing driveline strain and providing superior ride comfort. Whether navigating technical rock crawls or daily commutes, this upgrade enhances handling and stability.

Optional Axle Side Upper Bushing Upgrade

While factory bushings provide adequate performance, they may wear prematurely under extreme conditions. We offer two upgrade options:

  • Polyurethane Replacement Bushings – Provides increased durability and longevity.
  • Rock Jock Axle Side Johnny Joint Upgrade Kit – Replaces factory rubber with Johnny Joints for the best articulation and longevity (cutting and welding required for installation).

Two-Stage Powder Coating for Maximum Durability

Each component undergoes a two-stage powder coating process for superior protection.

Zinc Primer Base Coat – Provides rust and corrosion resistance.

Durable Top Coat – Available in 10 custom color options to match or contrast your Jeep’s suspension.

Made in the USA

Proudly manufactured in Orem, UT, the Crawl Series Long Arm Upgrade Kit meets the highest standards of American craftsmanship. By sourcing local materials and maintaining strict quality control, we ensure premium durability and performance.

In Conclusion

The Crawl Series Long Arm Upgrade Kit is the ultimate suspension upgrade for Jeep Cherokee XJ owners looking to improve stability, articulation, and ride comfort. With its long arm design, heavy-duty materials, and superior adjustability, this kit is built to handle everything from daily driving to extreme off-road adventures. Upgrade today and experience unmatched performance and durability on any terrain!

Select your lift size in Step 1 — the kit ships with the correct geometry for that height. If you’re running a non-standard setup, call us before ordering and we’ll confirm compatibility.

Death wobble is a geometry problem, not just worn parts. Cruise Series corrects caster angle and eliminates the flex points that let shimmy start. Replacing one part at a time delays the fix — this replaces the geometry.

Yes, if you’ve done a lift kit before. Full-day project. Watch the complete JT install walkthrough on our YouTube channel — most owners wrap it in a day. Any off-road shop can run it if you’d rather have it done.

Any non-wear component fails — we replace it. No mileage cap. No maintenance intervals to track. No fine print about voiding if you miss a service. Lifetime means lifetime.

Teraflex’s lifetime warranty voids if you miss a maintenance interval. MetalCloak’s actual parts warranty is 12 months — their “lifetime” language refers to their service program. No conditions here.

I wanted to take a moment and give these guys a shout out, I’ve currently got, for my xj, their adjustable control arms, tier 4 adjustable track bar and adjustable leaf spring shackles. You can always count on a fair price, high quality products, and quick delivery. Keep up the great work guys, will definitely continue to shop with you

The folks at Core 4X4 are always wonderful to deal with. They explain your options and never pressure or rush things. The quality of the Core Control Arms is top shelf, especially if your goal is to stop wheel hop. I recommend Core 4x4 without reservation ! ! !

Purchased a set of Trailing arms for my Ram 1500, quality is first class. I bought the ones with the Jonny Joints for more articulation and it appears from the construction I should get a lifetime of use, Zerk fittings are an added plus. Would defiantly recommend, and the the service team answered all of my questions.

Had a great experience with Core 4x4, I desperately needed a custom track bar and found out just a couple days before Easter Jeep Safari. Spence was a huge help and made it happen with plenty of time to spare. Their parts are top notch!

First and foremost would like to say that Core4x4s customer service is top notch and they definitely stand behind their warranty on products! Highly recommend using them for any of your off road needs! It’s rare to find a company now a days that backs their products and they do! Had a few issues with mounts and control arms and they handled it without hesitation! Thank you!
