RockJock's Heavy Duty High Steer Knuckle Kit for JL Wrangler, JL Unlimited and JT Gladiator vehicles (with standard Sport width axle) replaces the aluminum factory knuckles and raises your tie rod 2 3/4 in. and your drag link 2 1/2 in.. Currectlync steering that is included in this kit features forged, organically shaped drag link for maximum up travel and a 42mm tie rod. All steering rod ends are forged steel. Additionally, kit includes fully integrated trac bar relocation and steering stabilizer shock mounting bracket that raises your trac bar 2 in. and corrects it's geometry as well as giving you a raised mounting point for your steering stabilizer shock that mounts it dramatically higher, up and behind the new tie rod location, to protect it from rocks. RockJock's fabricated steel tie rod clamp installs to provide and easy hook-up point for the other end of your shock. All other factory outer components retained with the new knuckles including outer axles, unit bearings, dust shields and brakes. The use of RockJock's RJ-9120FJLF forged, organically shaped front trac bar is also strongly encouraged, so that all components nest together 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.

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.

Excellent quality product and service. My l lower control arms broke and within the same day core 4x4 hooked me up with tier 2 arms and with the color I wanted. My Jeep rides better and has been solid for several months so far. 10/10 would recommend their products to anyone.

I've been having trouble with the track bar (on my 2nd gen Dodge) since I installed the 3rd gen Synergy adapter bracket and a 3rd gen stock bar.. oddly, they call it a '3rd gen bracket' and the stock 3rd gen bar doesn't quite fit, making contact with the bracket. I had attempted to clearance the bracket but it was still making contact and I could feel it over large bumps.
I reached out to a lot of companies, but Core 4x4 offered to make a custom bar for the application with adjustability and dual Johnny joints. The first pass on it didn't work but they sent me out another passenger side end that made it fit incredibly well.
This was all done solely over email/descriptions/pictures/measurements.
Bar is super high quality and heavy duty, made in the US by a family owned company and carries a lifetime warranty. The customer service was responsive and superb, and the price was a lot less than I expected.
