Enhanced Suspension Performance for Your Jeep Cherokee XJ

Upgrade your Jeep Cherokee XJ with the Crawl Series Long Arm Upgrade Kit, designed to improve suspension travel, axle stability, and overall ride quality. Unlike radius-style long arms that create single points of failure, this long arm design features both long lower and upper control arms, providing superior strength, articulation, and ground clearance for off-road and on-road performance.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Long Arm Design – Enhances suspension articulation, improves ride quality, and eliminates binding issues found in short-arm setups.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction – Made from .313-inch wall DOM tubing for exceptional strength and durability in extreme conditions.
  • High-Clearance Crossmember – Improves obstacle clearance while maintaining drivetrain accessibility.
  • Adjustable for Various Lift Heights – Designed to work with lifts from 2 inches and up, making it an ideal low center of gravity (LCG) option for enhanced stability.
  • 100% Bolt-On Installation – Features bolt-on installation with optional weld surfaces for additional reinforcement.

Built for Strength and Performance

The Crawl Series Long Arm Upgrade Kit is engineered to provide maximum articulation and control. By utilizing long upper and lower control arms, this kit allows for a smoother suspension cycle, reducing driveline strain and providing superior ride comfort. Whether navigating technical rock crawls or daily commutes, this upgrade enhances handling and stability.

Optional Axle Side Upper Bushing Upgrade

While factory bushings provide adequate performance, they may wear prematurely under extreme conditions. We offer two upgrade options:

  • Polyurethane Replacement Bushings – Provides increased durability and longevity.
  • Rock Jock Axle Side Johnny Joint Upgrade Kit – Replaces factory rubber with Johnny Joints for the best articulation and longevity (cutting and welding required for installation).

Two-Stage Powder Coating for Maximum Durability

Each component undergoes a two-stage powder coating process for superior protection.

Zinc Primer Base Coat – Provides rust and corrosion resistance.

Durable Top Coat – Available in 10 custom color options to match or contrast your Jeep’s suspension.

Made in the USA

Proudly manufactured in Orem, UT, the Crawl Series Long Arm Upgrade Kit meets the highest standards of American craftsmanship. By sourcing local materials and maintaining strict quality control, we ensure premium durability and performance.


  • Vehicle Fitment: Jeep Cherokee XJ 84-01 – Transforms suspension performance with a true long-arm design, delivering unmatched stability, ride quality, and articulation for extreme off-road and on-road comfort.

  • CORE Advantage: A true 4-link design with long upper and lower control arms creates a superior suspension arc, increasing ride quality, downtravel, and articulation while reducing binding and improving axle control.

  • Adjustability: Designed for 2 to 6 inches of lift, allowing for precise alignment correction, longer suspension travel, and optimized ground clearance for low center of gravity (LCG) builds.

  • Construction: Built with 5/16” wall DOM tubing, 1/4” plate steel brackets, and a 3-piece high-clearance crossmember, featuring Johnny Joints for industry-leading articulation and durability.

  • Two-Stage Powder Coating: Zinc primer base and top coat available in 10 vibrant colors protect against corrosion and allow for personalized styling of your rig.

  • Warranty and Origin: Proudly manufactured in the United States, our product includes a lifetime warranty on all non-wear items, providing you with confidence and peace of mind in your purchase.

Best control arms I have installed on any of my builds. After running every major manufacturer, Core 4x4 is on par or better than all the high-end companies at a fraction of the cost. Lifetime warranty is the cherry on top.

I recently ordered a set of control arms from Core 4x4, and the entire experience was absolutely top-notch from start to finish. The ordering process was smooth, the parts arrived quickly, and the control arms themselves are extremely high quality—solid construction, great finish, and clearly built to last. I also want to give a special shout-out to Korby, the guy I spoke with during the process. His customer service was amazing. He went above and beyond to make sure I got exactly what I needed, answered all my questions, and made the whole experience stress-free. You don’t see service like that very often these days. If you’re looking for high-quality suspension components backed by truly exceptional customer service, I highly recommend Core 4x4. I’ll definitely be buying from them again.

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)

I have nothing but great things to say about this company and their customer service. If you like American made products backed by warranty and amazing customer support, this is the company for you. I have a Lexus GX470 and love their rear control arms.

In September 2025, we visited CORE 4x4 in Orem, Utah. CORE 4x4 makes control arms and other similar parts that stiffen the suspension of an off-road 4x4 vehicles, so that the off-road vehicles can travel on more rugged terrain. CORE 4x4 used to share this building with another business, and since this other business has moved elsewhere, CORE 4x4 will continue to expand and grow their business. Good for CORE 4x4 to be a growing company and to expand into the vacant part of the building.

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.

Have full upper/lower CA set on both front and rear axles on a 96 ZJ. These are the rubber bushing sets not joint sets. I have beat the hell out it in the Nevada desert for 2 years and has been great. I don’t go fast but I do articulate suspension a lot. Super solid and haven’t any issues. Just inspected the entire set recently due to some banging under it. Turns out the banging is lower rear shock bushings. Inspected each CA along the way nothing. Aside from dirt and obviously winter roads and what not still in excellent condition, bushings are solid like the day they were installed. I’ll add that I’m about tapped on a short arm at 4.25(less with settle) so the front CA’s get beat on just from that, still they’re like new. Paint is great condition, this set is red. I would definitely buy again. Another plus for me, Utah isn’t local necessarily, but it’s nice to support businesses closer to me.
