What’s Included
- Town Series Fixed Rear Upper Control Arms (TWN-R-15-2009-FXD-RU2)
Key Features Benefits
- Built for strength longevity – Made from high-strength steel tubing and equipped with polyurethane bushings at both ends, these arms ensure durability and long-lasting performance while providing smoother suspension articulation.
- Factory-length design for seamless fit – Direct replacement for factory arms, designed for stock height, leveled, or lowered applications (up to 2” drop) while maintaining proper suspension geometry.
- Eliminates wheel hop enhances traction – Reduces axle movement under acceleration, preventing loss of traction and improving vehicle stability.
- Improved handling reduced NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) – Polyurethane bushings absorb road noise and vibrations better than factory rubber bushings, offering a quieter, more stable ride.
Recommended Pairing
- Town Series Fixed Rear Lower Control Arms (TWN-R-15-2009-FXD-RL2) – For complete rear suspension control, we recommend pairing these upper control arms with our Town Series Fixed Rear Lower Control Arms to further enhance stability, handling, and traction.
Reduce Wheel Hop Improve Ride Comfort
Wheel hop occurs when the axle binds and oscillates under load, often caused by factory rubber bushings that create excessive preload on the suspension. The Town Series Fixed Rear Upper Control Arms solve this by utilizing high-quality polyurethane bushings at both ends, allowing controlled axle movement without excessive flex. This results in improved traction, reduced axle wrap, and a smoother, more predictable ride.
Highly Durable Two-Stage Powder Coating
Each control arm undergoes a two-stage powder coating process for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. A zinc primer base coat provides maximum rust protection, while the topcoat, available in 10 color options, adds another layer of durability and customization.
Optional Hardware Upgrade
These control arms are designed for installation using factory hardware. However, for increased durability and secure installation, we offer an optional Grade 8 hardware kit (sold separately). This upgrade ensures a stronger, more reliable connection, reducing the risk of movement or shifting under heavy loads.
Proudly Made in the USA
All CORE 4X4 components are designed, manufactured, and tested in Orem, UT, ensuring strict quality control and premium craftsmanship. By keeping production local, we maintain full oversight of material sourcing, welding, machining, and finishing, guaranteeing industry-leading durability and precision engineering.
Final Thoughts
The Town Series Fixed Rear Upper Control Arms are an essential upgrade for Ram 1500 owners looking to improve traction, handling, and ride comfort.
