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.

Unmatched Off-Road Flexibility On-Road Stability

Take your Toyota 4Runner (1996-2002) to the next level with the Crawl Series Rear Control Arm and Track Bar Kit. This complete rear-end solution provides total control over axle centering, suspension geometry, and pinion angle adjustments, ensuring maximum performance and durability. Whether you're tackling extreme off-road terrain or maintaining smooth highway manners, this kit delivers the perfect balance of strength, stability, and adjustability.

What’s Included in the Kit?

  • Crawl Series Rear Upper Control Arms (CRL-T-4R-96-RU2)
  • Crawl Series Rear Lower Control Arms (CRL-T-4R-96-RL2)
  • Crawl Series Rear Track Bar (CRL-T-4R-96-RTB1)

Key Features and Benefits

  • Heavy-duty DOM tubing construction – Built from 5/16” wall DOM tubing, these control arms and track bar provide maximum durability and strength, far surpassing factory and aftermarket alternatives.
  • Johnny Joints for maximum flexibility – Equipped with Johnny Joints at both ends, these components allow unparalleled articulation, reducing binding and improving off-road performance.
  • Left- and right-hand threaded adjustability – All components are left- and right-hand threaded, allowing for on-vehicle adjustments to fine-tune suspension geometry and alignment without removal.
  • Fully adjustable for lifted vehicles – Designed to accommodate 0 to 6 inches of lift, allowing for precise axle centering and pinion angle adjustments. For lifts beyond 6 inches, contact us for custom solutions.

Two-Stage Powder Coating for Maximum Protection

All components undergo a two-stage powder coating process for long-lasting durability and corrosion resistance. A zinc primer base coat prevents rust and enhances longevity, followed by a durable top coat available in 10 custom colors for added protection and personalization.

Manufactured in Orem, UT, the Crawl Series Rear Control Arm and Track Bar Kit is built to the highest standards of American craftsmanship. By choosing CORE 4X4, you’re supporting locally made, high-quality products that are designed to withstand the most demanding conditions.

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.

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.

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.

These guys are great. You can get them on the phone for support. This important and is not always the case with other custom parts builders. Their control arms are bomb proof and offer plenty of options. You can get real genuine Currie Johnny joints without paying the price for Currie arms.

Great long arm kit with everything else I needed as well! They worked with me to ensure that I was getting an upgraded components kit just like I wanted. Fast shipping with some of the best packaging that I have ever seen. Nothing was scratched or missing and this kit is even more impressive than the videos or website can show. Powder coating looks great with no issues. I would highly recommend CORE 4x4 to anyone looking for a great quality kit.

In September 2025, we visited CORE 4x4 in Orem, Utah. CORE 4x4 makes control arms and other similar parts that stiffen the suspension of an off-road 4x4 vehicles, so that the off-road vehicles can travel on more rugged terrain. CORE 4x4 used to share this building with another business, and since this other business has moved elsewhere, CORE 4x4 will continue to expand and grow their business. Good for CORE 4x4 to be a growing company and to expand into the vacant part of the building.

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.

The whole process was quick and painless. The products are top tier and when I reached out them for package update info, Korby Linscomb was very responsive, and got me the answers I needed the same day. Even when I emailed back to some additional info, he sent what I was looking for that same day. I love core 4x4 and will be giving them my business from now on.
