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.

Optimized Rear Suspension Control

Upgrade your Jeep Wrangler TJ or LJ (1997-2006) with the Cruise Series Rear Upper Control Arms, designed to correct pinion angle, recenter the rear axle, and eliminate driveline vibrations. These control arms provide greater strength and adjustability over stock components, making them a must-have upgrade for lifted Jeeps looking to improve handling and drivetrain longevity.

What’s Included in the Kit?

  • Cruise Series Rear Upper Control Arms (CRS-J-TJLJ-RU2)

Key Features and Benefits

  • Pinion Angle Correction – Properly adjusts pinion angle to eliminate driveline vibrations and reduce wear on drivetrain components.
  • Rear Axle Recentering – Ensures accurate axle alignment to maintain stability and handling after lifting your Jeep.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction – Built from heavy-duty steel tubing for unmatched durability in on- and off-road conditions.
  • Polyurethane Bushings – Provides superior responsiveness, vibration absorption, and longevity over standard rubber bushings.
  • Recommended Pairing – For complete rear-end suspension alignment and axle centering, pair with our Cruise Series Rear Lower Control Arms (CRS-J-TJLJ-RL2).

Precision Adjustability

Our fully adjustable Rear Upper Control Arms are engineered to fine-tune pinion angle and re-align the rear axle. With a range supporting 0 to 6 inches of lift, they provide crucial adjustments to optimize handling and drivetrain function. If your lift exceeds 6 inches, contact us for additional options.

Two-Stage Powder Coating

For maximum durability and corrosion resistance, all control arms undergo a two-stage powder coating process: Zinc primer base coat – Provides rust protection. Durable top coat – Available in 10 customizable colors for a long-lasting, stylish finish.

Made in the USA

Proudly manufactured in Orem, UT, our Cruise Series components support American craftsmanship and are built to the highest performance and durability standards.

Optional Hardware Upgrade

Installation is straightforward using factory hardware, but for those dealing with rusted or seized bolts, we offer optional Grade 8 hardware kits, available separately for a seamless installation process.

In Conclusion

Upgrading to the Cruise Series Rear Upper Control Arms ensures pinion angle correction, driveline vibration elimination, and superior rear axle stability. Pair them with our Cruise Series Rear Lower Control Arms (CRS-J-TJLJ-RL2) for a complete rear suspension upgrade.

Enhance your Jeep Wrangler TJ or LJ’s drivability and durability today!

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.

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!

Great company. Highly satisfied with Core 4x4 customer service. Had some bushings fall apart around 600 miles from home. Called and spoke with Korby Linscomb on Thursday, late in the afternoon. He was able to get my bushings sent across country overnight at a very reasonable rate. Had me up and running by Friday evening with enough time to enjoy the Great Smoky Mountain Jeep Invasion. Thanks Guys!

Ordered a control arm and track bar kit for my WJ from Core 4x4 on Monday 7/28 and received it today, Friday 8/1. Im not a state or two away, im in CT aka the other side of the country. Communication is phenominal, emails were responded too in an hour or less. Parts arrived well packed, not damaged, and are great quality for my needs. There arent many companies left that service customers as well as Core 4x4 and i wont hesitate to check them out again if i need something else. Well done!

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.

I purchased the Jeep WJ control arms Camp series over a year ago. Very pleased and impressed. Easy installation and solid build. Bracket broke for rear upper control arm, they redesigned it to be more robust and sent me a new one with hardware, honoring their guarantee!

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!

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

I couldn't have been more excited for the initial unboxing of these new Core 4x4 UCA's! They appear to be so well built and just a true quality product. Installation was a breeze and the initial testing with the forklift appears to have given me some additional flex with less binding on the rest of the components now that the geometry is back properly aligned. Time will tell how they hold up on my near future off-road adventures but I don't have any doubt that they are up to the task!
