RockJock's High Steer Knuckles for JK Wrangler and Unlimited vehicles are a game changer! These new knuckles raise both the tie rod and drag link 2 3/4 in. as well as pushing the tie rod outward, away from the axle slightly, allowing for tighter (JL/JT) steering angle over that of stock JK and 1 ton axles. For use on factory axles or axles that retain factory inner C-knuckles, new high knuckles are intended for use with RockJock's other high steer components, to give you a package that provides everything necessary to accommodate the higher steering location, adjust all geometry points and allow you to easily install a hydraulic assist steering ram, or to reinstall a stabilizer shock! Knuckles are manufactured to greater than OEM standards in every way. Features include premium iron castings, gloss black finish and precise machining for a component that installs just like factory. Additionally, provided are extra threaded steering stop bolt holes ahead of the axle to allow for a second set of stops to be added, giving you firm steering lock stops on both wheels at all times, easing strain on other components. For best results, it is highly recommended that these knuckles be used in conjunction with one of RockJock's knuckle kits that include all of the other components to make this installation easy. Their RJ-430000-101 kit includes a forged, high articulation Drag Link, a 42mm chromoly Tie Rod, a JL/JT Trac Bar as well as the bracket and clamp kits to allow you to install a hydraulic assist steering ram. They also offer their RJ-430001-101 and RJ-430001-103 kits that include the same Drag Link and Tie Rod, as well as the bracket and clamp kits to allow you to reinstall your steering stabilizer shock at a much higher, protected height. Kits that retain the steering stabilizer shock are available with or without their longer RJ-9120FJLF forged, organically shaped JL/JT front trac bar (for higher articluation). Use of their RJ-107101-101 adjustable front bump stop kit is strongly encouraged to allow for maximum up-travel, as engineered.

Great company, who worked with me on shipping parts to arrive in time for a show. When I explained my concern they went above and beyond to make it happen. Quality of the parts is top notch.

I have nothing but good things to say about Core 4x4. I have the crawler series on my JKU and we take it all over the place. These parts handle everything we throw at them.

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.

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.

Beefy parts made and painted well, very fair pricing for what you get, and fantastic customer service to boot. Easily my favorite place to get suspension parts.

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!

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!

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)
