Regain Proper Caster Improve Front-End Stability

When lifting your Jeep Wrangler JL, maintaining proper caster angle is crucial for steering stability, handling, and overall drivability. Factory suspension geometry is already lacking in caster, and adding a lift can worsen the issue—leading to wandering, following ruts in the road, and a loose steering feel.

Our Cruise Series Front Upper Control Arms are designed to fine-tune caster correction, improving steering precision, high-speed stability, and tire wear. When paired with our Cruise Series Front Lower Control Arms (CRS-J-JL-FL2), this combination completely restores axle centering, suspension alignment, and caster angles, offering a full front-end suspension solution for lifted Jeeps.

Key Features Benefits

  • Restores proper caster angle – Adjustability allows fine-tuning of suspension geometry, eliminating wandering, pulling, and unstable steering after lifting your Jeep.
  • Improves steering response high-speed stability – Proper caster helps keep your steering wheel centered and reduces fatigue from constant corrections.
  • Heavy-duty steel construction – Built from high-strength steel tubing, these arms deliver long-lasting durability and enhanced off-road performance.
  • Unique U-bracket design – The axle end U-bracket mounts directly to the factory axle bushing, maintaining a secure and quiet ride.
  • Recommended pairing for maximum stability – Combine with our Cruise Series Front Lower Control Arms (CRS-J-JL-FL2) to fully correct caster, re-center the axle, and eliminate steering instability.

Adjustability for Lifts from 0 to 6 Inches

Whether you're at factory height or running a 6-inch lift, these fully adjustable control arms allow precise caster correction and suspension alignment. If you’re running a lift over 3 inches, pairing with our adjustable Front Lower Control Arms ensures full caster correction and axle re-centering for maximum control. For lifts beyond 6 inches, contact us for additional options.

Durable Two-Stage Powder Coating

Each control arm undergoes a two-stage powder coating process: Zinc primer base coat – Ensures maximum rust and corrosion protection, especially in harsh climates. Durable top coat – Available in 10 color options, allowing you to customize your Jeep’s suspension components while adding extra durability.

Proudly Made in the USA

Manufactured in Orem, UT, these control arms are built with 100% American-made materials to exacting quality standards. By choosing our Cruise Series, you support local manufacturing and high-quality craftsmanship.

Optional Hardware Upgrade

Our Cruise Series Front Upper Control Arms are designed to reuse your Jeep’s factory mounting hardware. If your existing bolts are rusted, worn, or difficult to remove, we offer optional Grade 8 hardware kits separately for a hassle-free installation and added durability.

For the best results, pair with our Cruise Series Front Lower Control Arms (CRS-J-JL-FL2) to create a complete front-end suspension upgrade, eliminating wandering, rut-following, and excessive steering corrections.

Exceptional customer service. All my questions were asked in a timely manner and parts were replaced when an error occured. I encourage people to make purchases due to their exceptional quality products, but also because of their customer service. Will make additional purchases in the future.

I’m extremely impressed with Core 4x4. The quality of their parts is outstanding — everything feels solid, well‑built, and engineered with real attention to detail. Shipping was fast and everything arrived perfectly packaged. Their customer service is just as good as their products: responsive, helpful, and genuinely committed to making sure you get exactly what you need. Overall, a top‑tier experience. I’ll definitely be buying from them again. Specially thank you Mr. Linscomb from Core 4x4. Arturo M.

After ordering an upper and lower adjustable control arm kit manufactured by CORE 4X4 from a jeep parts distributor who's intials are E.T., they came with 3 of the threaded ends missing. After over 2 months of phone calls and emails to this E.T. company nothing was resolved. I finally decided to call CORE 4X4 myself and tell them my dilemma. I spoke with a very personable and professional gentleman named Korby, who is one of CORE 4X4's representatives, after a brief discussion of what I went thru he simply asked me for a picture and some measurements and the items I was missing and asked if I could cover ONLY the cost of shipping and I had my missing parts in exactly 1 weeks time. This company not only builds all it's parts in the U.S.A., they stand behind their products with great customer service and life time warranty. My experience with this company and their Rep Korby was fantastic. I would definitely recommend CORE 4X4 to anyone who needs parts for any 4x4 projects. You just can't beat their quality and service.

I have recently come to know Core 4x4 when I purchased a Jeep XJ and was looking for a place that had dedicated XJ suspension and components. Here is what makes them different than most other shops. All of their components are top shelf quality and they back it up if you break any of it. I was able to see their shop when I picked up an order locally and was impressed with their attention to detail and how they assemble and powder coat each part. I had an issue with a shackle and needed the threaded shaft to be shorter. I called in and talked to Kaden and he told me to come by and they would shorten it for me. When I got there, Kaden and Spencer (the owner) met me and talked about options and proceeded to make the right adjustments to fit my XJ. Told me if anything changes in the future and I need additional length, they would take care of me. So what really sets them apart from others is their Customer Service. Try calling in to any other Jeep suspension or part shop and see how they treat you. Been there - done that. Will continue to do business with Core and their team. Getting that kind of service for just a shackle has me thinking I may need to replace my JT components with Core's. Thanks Guys for being helpful good humans!

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!

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!
