Lift Your Jeep Wrangler JK for a Bold Look and Improved Performance

Upgrade your Jeep Wrangler JK with the CORE 4X4 Cruise Series Lift Kit, the perfect entry-level solution for better stance, improved handling, and enhanced off-road capability. This kit allows you to run 33-inch tires with no modifications and 35-inch tires with minor trimming, giving your Jeep a more aggressive look while maintaining a comfortable and controlled ride.

Beyond aesthetics, this lift kit helps correct caster deficiencies that can cause wandering and instability, especially after lifting your Jeep. This kit will provide approximately 1.5" of lift on 4-door Jeeps and approximately 2.5" of lift on 2-door Jeeps. 

Note: New rear end links are included in the kit with the intention of using the factory rear end links for the front sway bar. They have the same mounting specs as the front end links, but are a few inches longer. If you would like new end links for the front the part number is CRS-J-JK-FEL2

Key Features Benefits

  • Ideal for Running Larger Tires – Supports 33-inch tires with no trimming and 35-inch tires with minor modifications, providing the perfect stance upgrade.
  • Triple-Rate Coil Springs – Ensures a smooth and controlled ride with progressive spring rates that adapt to different terrains.
  • Corrects Caster Angle Improves Steering Stability – Paired with Cruise Series Front Lower Control Arms, this kit reduces wandering and improves highway drivability.
  • Increased Ground Clearance – Navigate rough terrain with confidence, reducing undercarriage contact with obstacles.
  • Optimized Ride Quality – Shock absorbers matched to lift height provide the perfect balance of comfort and control.
  • Easy Bolt-On Installation – No major modifications required for a hassle-free upgrade.

Durable Two-Stage Powder Coating

The Cruise Series Front Lower Control Arms undergo a two-stage powder coating process to ensure long-lasting durability and resistance to corrosion. The first stage applies a zinc primer base coat, creating a strong barrier against rust and environmental wear. The second stage features a durable topcoat, available in 10 color options, allowing you to customize the look of your suspension components while adding an additional layer of protection.

Made in the USA

Manufactured in Orem, UT, this lift kit is built with high-quality American craftsmanship and locally sourced materials, ensuring durability and reliability.

Complete Hardware Included

This kit includes all necessary installation hardware, eliminating the need for additional purchases.

Great customer service. I got my front upper and lower control arms and hardware on Friday afternoon. It didn’t come with instructions so I called Core 4X4 and they immediately e mailed me the instructions. Also, the kit I got had the spacers missing so I called. It was late Friday by thus time but they took care of the issue first thing Monday morning and I got the spacers on Tuesday. Great company.

First of I just want to say Great customer service korby Has helped me from the start and has not let me down! Reached out to him again today and he was able to warranty some parts out for me. As far as the quality of the parts.. excellent! The build quality is great. I can definitely tell a Difference from the cheap oem rear control arms to these and the pan hard bar. Color, From what I can tell it’s super durable been through a few mud holes on top of the daily road grime and after a quick wipe they still pop! Overall I recommend. Customer service is everything for me and it’s definitely there at Core 4x4.

I contacted these guys on a Saturday through email and needed some control arms by the following weekend, Spence got back with me and told me he would make sure the order got shipped out on Monday, they got busy and wasn’t able to ship the package out so he got back with me that evening and upgraded my shipping for free and shipped out the next day, only because he told me he’d make sure I’d have them by the weekend! This company sticks to their word! The customer service from these guys are unmatched and they will have another lifetime customer here!

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.

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.

Great long arm kit with everything else I needed as well! They worked with me to ensure that I was getting an upgraded components kit just like I wanted. Fast shipping with some of the best packaging that I have ever seen. Nothing was scratched or missing and this kit is even more impressive than the videos or website can show. Powder coating looks great with no issues. I would highly recommend CORE 4x4 to anyone looking for a great quality kit.

Installed rear and upper control arms and track bar on my 3rd Gen 4RUNNER to align rear axle and restore factory wheel base after 3.5" lift. Car drives better than New! Improved handling cornering and overall driving. Very solid and high quality made product. Support is outstanding. Shipping extremely fast. Thank you so much. I wish you will have something new for my car.
