Details

Core 4x4's Crawl Series 5-piece rear suspension kit replaces all four worn factory stamped-steel control arms and the worn factory track bar on the Cadillac Escalade EXT (2002–2006). The factory parts use soft rubber bushings and a fixed length, so there's no way to re-align the rear axle, recenter it side-to-side, or correct pinion angle after a lift or leveling kit. These Core 4x4 parts are a serious step up: DOM steel tubing and Rock Jock Johnny Joints at both ends of every arm and the track bar for maximum articulation, with adjustable length to set rear axle alignment, side-to-side centering, and pinion angle back to spec.

Includes: Rear upper control arms (pair), rear lower control arms (pair), and the rear adjustable track bar; mounting hardware (bolts, nuts, and washers).

Specs:

  • Upper arms — 1.5 in. o.d. × 5/16 in. wall DOM steel
  • Lower arms — 1.75 in. o.d. × 5/16 in. wall DOM steel
  • Track bar — 1.5 in. o.d. × 5/16 in. wall DOM steel
  • Joints — Rock Jock Johnny Joints, both ends (every arm and the track bar)
  • Adjustable length — arms and track bar
  • Lift range — 0–6 in. and up
  • Made in the USA
  • Lifetime warranty — bend it or break it, we'll 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 kit. If you ever need replacements down the road, the matching kit is available separately.
  • Running a lift? The 7-piece full rear kit (CRL-G-800-EXT-RK7-Z55) adds the rear sway bar end links to finish the rear.

Parts:

  • Upper forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint, right-hand — CE-9112N-22 (1 per upper arm, 2 for the upper pair).
  • Upper forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint, left-hand — CE-9112NL-22 (1 per upper arm, 2 for the upper pair).
  • Lower forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint, right-hand — CE-9114 (1 per lower arm, 2 for the lower pair).
  • Lower forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint, left-hand — CE-9114L (1 per lower arm, 2 for the lower pair).
  • Track bar forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint, right-hand — CE-9112N-22 (1 for the track bar).
  • Track bar forged Rock Jock Johnny Joint, left-hand — CE-9112NL-22 (1 for the track bar).
  • Replacement hardware kit — CRL-G-800-RK5-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)

I want to take the time to share my experience with Core 4x4. I have a 2004 Jeep Wrangler and was looking to upgrade some suspension parts. I went with Core 4x4 upper & lower adjustable control arms and a front adjustable track bar. Everything arrived quickly, and right out of the box I was impressed with the quality and craftsmanship. I had a few questions during installation (measurements and torque specs), and I spoke with Korby on a couple of occasions. Not only did he send me detailed instructions, but he also shared an installation video specific to the part and vehicle I was working on, something you don’t get from many companies. The control arms fit perfectly, look great, and perform exactly as I hoped. I did run into an issue with the front track bar touching the front diff. When I reached out, Korby had me send pictures and then immediately offered two solutions: his bar guy could make a different bend and send it out to me, or I could get a full refund. His response honestly blew me away. As much as I wanted to run the Core 4x4 track bar, I chose the refund. Korby sent me a prepaid shipping label right away, no hassle. My experience with Core 4x4 has been excellent. Korby was extremely understanding, communicative, and helpful every step of the way. The parts I received were high quality, and the customer service was second to none. I would absolutely recommend Core 4x4 10 out of 10 times and will be using them again. Just a great American company with awesome people who truly care about their customers. Thank you Korby, and thank you Core 4x4!

I am really please with this company. Great product, i had an issue with a couple of the jonnhy joint bushings, they explained what had caused it and how to fix it. Within hrs of receiving my inquiry, i had heard back with the required info I needed. A couple hrs later problem was fixed and ready for the trail again. They care about heir product and their customers. Thanks crew, you rock

upper control arms look great and went on easy.. only reason I gave 4 stars and not 5 is because of a shipping issue which put my build a week behind. The issue was resolved quickly and painlessly, great customer service. Only time will tell how control arms perform but they look great and like they will go above and beyond control arm demand.

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)

First off: Korby, the gentleman that helped me decide on which kit to go with is EASILY the nicest, and most patient person I’ve dealt with, when ordering parts for this build. Second: the quality of the product is INSANE! These parts are so nicely fabricated, then powder coated for extra longevity, and they even offer an aluminum upgrade in some cases (which I went with, to save weight). Having said all of this, the most impressive thing was the lead time. These parts are build to order, and I literally ordered my suspension one week ago, today! Yes, they built, powder coated, packaged, shipped my suspension components (RAM 1500 Track rear trailing arm full set in 7075 aluminum, and front upper control arms), AND they arrived, all within a week! Granted, that I’m only one state away, but WOW!!! One week?! Amazing! So, in sort: excellent products, which arrived excellently packaged (no damage, an boxes not over-stuffed with heavy suspension parts; three boxes total, as opposed to one super heavy one…my back thanks you), super quickly, and customer service that ANY business would be envious of….so, if you’re in the market, absolutely go with Core 4X4!
