The Special Sauce:

  • HOUSING
    • SAE 1045 Solid Steel Forged Housing:This is unequivocally the best carbon alloy steel for this application.
    • Knurled Housings:The preferred design for aftermarket installations.
    • CNC Machined Housing:Make our parts and bearings dimensionally perfect, eliminating any die wear issues.
  • BALL STUDS
    • SAE 4140 hot forged Chromoly Ball Studs:  for strongest possible metallurgy.
    • Plunger Design Stud:Unique to Jeep and Dodge, allows up and down movement with no side-to-side movement.
    • Induction Heat Treated Ball Studs:provides a very precise heat treatment to the exact depth and location we want it.
    • Rolled Threads:  are made by pressing the shape of the threads into the ball stud instead of cutting. This strengthens the threads instead of weakening them and allows for easy movement of hardware. This ain't no Ikea furniture!
    • Step Threads :allows for very easy movement of hardware on install and superior holding when torqued (installer choice).
  • BEARING DESIGN
    • Carbon Bearing Design:Used mainly in Jeep and Dodge upper ball joints is the solver of all things wobbly. Like all of our product.
  • BOOTS
    • CR Rubber Boots:The most durable material for undercar applications.
    • Pancake Boot 
  • HARDWARE
    • Grade 8 - Class 10.9 Hardware:Superior tensile strength.
    • Castle Nut:Industry standard where high vibration loads occur.
  • LUBRICATION
    • Pre-threaded Zerk Housing:If you have ever installed a MOOG ball joint without a pre-threaded zerk fitting you will understand what a simple but great feature this is. Another installer fav.
    • Greaseable:Because it should be.
    • Pre-Greased:Just in case you forget, we have you covered.
    • Gull Winged Grease Grooves:Allows for improved lubrication disbursement.
    • Zerk Fittings:Included for every application.

Not sure where to start, Products or Service or Warranty. Products: I found Core4x4 through a very respected YouTuber in the Jeeping community. I purchased an entire set of Core4x4 Control Arms three years ago and have beat the daylights out of them and they are still in great condition. Now, I purchased another Jeep, this time for my daughter and bought yet another set of Control Arms because I know that these things can take a beating and stand up to it. I plan on replacing more parts on this TJ and my JL and will continue to buy from Core4x4. Service: This isn't some huge name conglomerate that treats you like you're just another customer. They are quick with responses and will always make things right should something be a problem. Oh and the quickness in which they ship their products is unmatched. I bought these CAs for my TJ on Thursday, I received them on Monday. Most other manufacturers will tell you weeks, they had them to me in 2 shipping days. Warranty: Seriously, a lifetime warranty? Yes please. Nothing more to say. I can't say enough about how great of a company this is. I've even spoken to the owner through email a few years back on some questions that I had. Support small American built businesses. P.S. Core 4x4, feel free to make me an ambassador and send me some swag :) .

First time buying from Korby @ Core 4x4 and it’s being nothing short of a great experience. I bought the non adjustable Trail kit for my 5th Gen Ram 1500 with a 2” lift. The welds look great, nice powder coat finish and quality bushing. Had some trouble fitting the grease nipples due to the powder coating but a thread tap would fix that. They fit easily and perform great. I felt the improvement straight away. No more wheel hop on hard acceleration which was my main reason for the purchase. I was missing some smaller bushings needed for the 5th Gen and Korby’s custom service was on point, with responsive emails and mailing out the missing parts straight away. Very happy with their products and customer service. Highly recommended company👌🏽

Great experience with Core 4x4! I purchased some suspension parts for my dad's 98 Jeep TJ. The products they make are super durable and look even better in person. Attention to detail and overall superior quality. The staff at Core 4x4 is super helpful also, Korby has been great. Updating me on the status of my order and sending me tracking numbers as well. Thank you all at Core 4x4, keep up the amazing work!

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.

I just finished installing the Peak 2.0 Front Suspension system with the Core 4x4 Blue Tacoma Rear Suspension system on my 2024 TRD Offroad Premium Tacoma. The two upgraded suspension systems really made a difference in how the ride feels, whether we’re off-road or on the road. A big thank you to Korby and the team at Core 4x4 for their support and for getting the shipping sorted out so quickly!
