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 GMC Yukon XL 1500 (2000–2006). 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 — Standard or Autoride (Z55): Select at checkout. Z55 trucks have factory rear air leveling; the Autoride version includes the ride-height sensor mounting tab on both rear upper arms. If you're not sure which you have, check the RPO sticker in the glove box for a Z55 code.
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-YXL-RK7) 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).

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!

Excellent, strong, and durable products—perfect for both on-road and off-road applications. The customer service is outstanding—friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful with understanding installation and ensuring I got exactly what I needed. I would definitely order again. Top-notch company with high-quality products made right here in the U.S.A.

I ordered a part for my 03 Jeep TJ and all I can say is wow! Korby at Core 4x4 is a total rockstar!! There was a glitch with my payment and within minutes, Korby reached out to me to get it fixed, then sent my receipt with the tracking number. I lost the number and reached out to him during the Holidays and got a rapid response with the number again. I can’t say enough about the customer service and the quality of parts. Thank you!!

Awesome control arms! My mechanic said “ your Jeep is pretty much bulletproof now.” And I just got the tier 1 arms! The people at the core 4x4 shop were really nice too. They were running behind on shipping, (which is understandable) so I decided to go pick it up because it was only an hour drive. They gave me a free $60 hardware kit for the inconvenience. Thanks core 4x4! You guys are awesome!!

Had a great experience with Core 4x4, I desperately needed a custom track bar and found out just a couple days before Easter Jeep Safari. Spence was a huge help and made it happen with plenty of time to spare. Their parts are top notch!

Purchased a set of Trailing arms for my Ram 1500, quality is first class. I bought the ones with the Jonny Joints for more articulation and it appears from the construction I should get a lifetime of use, Zerk fittings are an added plus. Would defiantly recommend, and the the service team answered all of my questions.

To start off if you're looking to upgrade your control arms definitely hit this company up. Great product, easy install of the product, with three different tiers everything is priced pretty good, I'm a sticker guy and they sent a sticker for each arm each track bar and also three extra ones so the extra are on the Jeep the advertise them for sure. If you're reading this review I highly recommend you to check their website out.

Small business, family owned, made in the USA, lifetime warranty. Purchased Tier 3 control arms and rear track bar for a 2006 Jeep LJ. Simple website and easy to contact over phone and email. I had some technical questions and they were happy to answer them. They allow local pickup and were built to order same week. The order was wrapped and ready when I walked in and even gave a tour of the shop. They abrasive blast all raw materials to achieve a better surface profile for powdercoat to adhere and create a smooth, durable finish. I also noticed several CNC machines and a robotic welder they use for all their parts. A small outfit with a robotic welder? Their concern for quality is obvious and it shows in the parts they make. Very impressed. Happy to do business with these guys.

I don’t write reviews often, but Core 4x4 absolutely earned this one.
I recently ordered leaf spring mounts and realized after the fact that I messed up my order. Totally my mistake. Instead of giving me the runaround or pointing at a return policy, Core 4x4 emailed me back and forth, worked through exactly what I was doing with my build, and made sure I ended up with the correct parts.
That kind of customer service is rare these days — especially in the off-road world where a lot of companies stop caring once the order is placed.
The parts themselves are exactly what you hope for: solid, well-made, confidence-inspiring hardware that looks like it belongs under a vehicle that actually gets used. You can tell these are designed by people who understand suspension geometry and real-world abuse, not just CAD screenshots.
Mistakes happen — especially on custom or modified builds — and Core 4x4 handled mine like pros. Fast responses, clear communication, and a genuine effort to help me get it right.
If you’re on the fence: don’t be. Core 4x4 is the kind of company you want backing your build — the kind that treats customers like fellow enthusiasts, not order numbers.

Their website estimated 2 days to get my parts but actually took 11. No communication to let me know what’s going on. Parts were missing. Some days they answer questions, some they don’t. Didn’t let me know I’d have to alter stock bolts to fit their parts.
All around just seems like they don’t care.
