Transform Your ZJ’s Suspension for Maximum Off-Road Performance

The CORE 4X4 Crawl Series Long Arm Upgrade Kit is a complete suspension overhaul for the 1993-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ, delivering unparalleled ride quality, strength, and off-road capability. By eliminating the factory short-arm suspension and replacing it with precision-engineered long arms and high-strength mounting brackets, this kit dramatically improves axle stability, suspension cycling, traction, and handling. With extended suspension geometry, this kit allows your axles to cycle on a longer arc, resulting in a smoother ride, improved articulation, and optimized stance.

Whether you’re daily driving, rock crawling, or desert racing, this bolt-on system provides the durability and control needed to tackle any terrain.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Optimized Suspension Travel Geometry – Extends control arm mounting points, allowing axles to move on a longer suspension arc for a smoother ride and better traction. Eliminates axle bind and short-arm limitations, allowing for increased suspension articulation. Reduces body roll and improves high-speed stability while maintaining low-speed crawling capability.
  • Heavy-Duty DOM Tubing Construction – 1.75” OD DOM tubing for lower arms and 1.5” OD DOM tubing for upper arms, providing extreme durability and impact resistance. Double-threaded left- and right-hand adjusters allow for on-vehicle fine-tuning without removal. (Front upper control arms are fixed due to the U-bracket design.)
  • Precision-Cut and Bent 1/4” Steel Brackets – Replaces factory short-arm mounting brackets with reinforced, heavy-duty weld-on brackets designed for maximum strength and long-term performance. Integrated body mount relocation on rear brackets, ensuring proper clearance for full suspension travel.
  • Full Suspension Overhaul for Maximum Performance – Eliminates factory suspension limitations, providing significantly better ride quality, handling, and stance. Improves axle centering, caster, and pinion angles, ensuring proper drivetrain geometry and reducing stress on suspension components. Designed for heavy off-road use, daily driving, and load-bearing applications, making it the ultimate upgrade for any ZJ build.

Durable Powder Coating for Long-Lasting Protection

To ensure maximum durability and corrosion resistance, each component undergoes a two-stage powder coating process. The zinc primer base coat provides superior protection against rust, while the durable top coat—available in 10 color options—adds an extra layer of resilience and customization to match your Jeep’s build. Brackets are left raw to ensure proper welding and post-installation finishing.

Ive had the front adjustable control arm kit in bright green for my 1996 ZJ. Ive had the kit for about a year now and i have to say, im extremely impressed, over 1000 miles off-road and roughly 20,000 miles on the highway. These control arm kits for any vehicle built by core 4x4 are well worth the money, just be aware thereight be some minor scatches or chips from shipping ( but who should care about that if you're beating the crap out of em' they way they were built and designed for)

Ran into an issue with a part that I ordered. Got ahold of them explained to them the issue I was having and they jumped in and got the issue fixed. Hands down the best customer service I have ever dealt with. The parts are hands down amazing. Highly recommend.

Amazing service. Bought a track bar through Americantrucks.com and they sent it with the wrong size bushing sleeve. Korby at Core 4x4 was quick to get me the correct size and very responsive. Will definitely be using more of their stuff.

First of I just want to say Great customer service korby Has helped me from the start and has not let me down! Reached out to him again today and he was able to warranty some parts out for me. As far as the quality of the parts.. excellent! The build quality is great. I can definitely tell a Difference from the cheap oem rear control arms to these and the pan hard bar. Color, From what I can tell it’s super durable been through a few mud holes on top of the daily road grime and after a quick wipe they still pop! Overall I recommend. Customer service is everything for me and it’s definitely there at Core 4x4.

2022 I ordered a 2023 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon in High Velocity yellow. Without any hesitation I knew I was going with Core 4x4’s 16pc Camp series suspension, powder coated in yellow. Compliments were a given from any and everyone that looked under my jeep. So beefy, I may have left some yellow paint on the rocks from Maine to Florida, but no bends or breaks. Customer service has been perfect each and every time I have needed something. Their warranty is top notch! Their communication is also wonderful. Might upgrade to the Crawl Series control arms where the Johnny joints are on both sides. Great all around company and a great team to troubleshoot your issue and come to a conclusion. Nothing bad to say about this company. Just love this suspension.
