Details

Core 4x4's Cruise Series rear upper control arms replace the worn factory stamped-steel arms on the Cadillac Escalade EXT (2002–2006). The factory arms use soft rubber bushings and a fixed length, so there's no way to correct pinion angle after a lift or leveling kit. These Core 4x4 arms are a serious step up: heavier steel construction, fresh poly bushings, and adjustable length to set rear pinion angle back to spec.

They're also built to grow with your truck. When you want more articulation later, the adjustable end accepts the same forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint our Camp arms use, so you can upgrade in place without replacing the whole arm.

Includes: Rear upper control arms (pair); mounting hardware (bolts, nuts, and washers).

Specs:

  • Tubing — 1.625 in. o.d. × 3/16 in. wall steel
  • Bushings — poly, both ends
  • Adjustable length — for pinion-angle correction
  • Lift range — 0–6 in.
  • Made in the USA
  • You break it, we replace it
  • Wear items (bushings, joints) — covered for 18 months

Suspension Type — Factory Autoride (Z55): Chances are, your truck came with rear Autoride (Z55) from the factory — GM's air-leveling system. This part is built to match: the ride-height sensor mounting tab is included on both rear upper arms, so your factory sensors bolt right back on. Converted to coil springs — or never had air ride at all? No problem — everything fits and works exactly the same; the sensor tabs just go unused.

Notes:

  • Hardware is included with your arms. If you ever need replacements down the road, the matching kit is available separately.
  • Future upgrade: each adjustable end accepts a forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint (CE-9112N-22) — two for the pair.
  • Running a lift? The 4-piece rear set (CRS-G-800-EXT-RS4-Z55) adds the matching lower arms to replace all four rear arms in one job.

Parts:

  • Poly bushings — BSH-UPBH-CB, 9/16-in. bolt (2 per arm, 4 for the pair).
  • Replacement hardware kit — CRS-G-800-RU2-HWK.

Fits:

  • Chevy Tahoe (2000–2006)
  • Chevy Suburban 1500 (2000–2006)
  • Chevy Avalanche 1500 (2002–2006)
  • GMC Yukon / Yukon XL 1500 (2000–2006)
  • GMC Yukon Denali / XL Denali (2001–2006)
  • Cadillac Escalade / ESV / EXT (2002–2006)
  • 1500-series only. Does NOT fit 2500-series HD.

Best control arms I have installed on any of my builds. After running every major manufacturer, Core 4x4 is on par or better than all the high-end companies at a fraction of the cost. Lifetime warranty is the cherry on top.

Great quality control arms and great customer service. Korby has been a great help at answering my questions on some issues I’ve been having with installation!

Their website estimated 2 days to get my parts but actually took 11. No communication to let me know what’s going on. Parts were missing. Some days they answer questions, some they don’t. Didn’t let me know I’d have to alter stock bolts to fit their parts. All around just seems like they don’t care.

Korby was extremely helpful in helping me find the right part for my truck. He was kind, knowledgeable, and patient while I asked a million questions. He also went out of his way to find the right shipping option for me since it’s tricky where I live. I’m looking forward to getting the parts so I can fix my truck and go adventuring again soon!

Had a worn out set of rear upper control arms on my TJ. These were old rubicon express long arms. can’t buy replacements and no one makes a direct fit replacement. Talked with Korby at core off road sent some measurements and photos and a week later new arms showed up. Packaging was perfect fit was perfect. Would highly recommend giving these guys a call.

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

I ordered a part for my 03 Jeep TJ and all I can say is wow! Korby at Core 4x4 is a total rockstar!! There was a glitch with my payment and within minutes, Korby reached out to me to get it fixed, then sent my receipt with the tracking number. I lost the number and reached out to him during the Holidays and got a rapid response with the number again. I can’t say enough about the customer service and the quality of parts. Thank you!!
