Maximum Steering Strength Precision Handling

Take your Jeep Gladiator JT’s steering performance to the next level with the CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Tie Rod Upgrade. Engineered for extreme off-road durability, precise handling, and maximum impact resistance, this tie rod upgrade ensures unwavering control in any terrain. Whether you're rock crawling, navigating deep ruts, or tackling high-speed desert trails, this premium tie rod provides superior strength and reliability under the toughest conditions.

Key Features Benefits

  • Heavy-duty forged construction – Built with forged tie rod ends featuring massive 1.25” threaded shanks, delivering unparalleled strength and longevity.
  • Premium 7075 aluminum build – Machined from 2.0” solid 7075 aluminum, this tie rod absorbs and disperses impact forces, preventing steering component failure and suspension damage.
  • Self-correcting memory alloy – The aluminum’s memory properties allow the tie rod to flex under impact and return to its original shape, maintaining optimal steering performance.
  • Advanced anti-roll technology – Integrated anti-roll capability in the tie rod ends prevents flopping and instability, ensuring tight, precise steering.

Recommended Pairing

Maximize steering durability and responsiveness by pairing with the CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Drag Link Upgrade (ST-J-JT-DL1).

Precision Engineering Maximum Control

The CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Tie Rod Upgrade is designed to outperform and outlast factory steering components. CNC-machined wrench flats allow for easy jam nut adjustments, while friction washers ensure jam nuts stay tight in extreme off-road environments. This tie rod bolts directly into factory locations, providing hassle-free installation and a factory-like fit.

Lifetime Warranty Wearable Parts Guarantee

CORE 4X4 backs this tie rod upgrade with a lifetime warranty—if you permanently bend the tie rod or break a tie rod end, we’ll replace it, no questions asked. Additionally, tie rod ends are covered under our wearable parts guarantee for 18 months, ensuring long-term reliability.

Fitment Wheel Requirements

This tie rod upgrade is compatible with 17” wheels featuring 4.75” backspacing or less. AEV and stock Rubicon wheels require 1.5” wheel spacers for proper clearance. The kit includes a steering stabilizer clamp for use with factory or factory-style stabilizers, though a relocation kit may be required for certain setups.

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!

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 purchased the Jeep WJ control arms Camp series over a year ago. Very pleased and impressed. Easy installation and solid build. Bracket broke for rear upper control arm, they redesigned it to be more robust and sent me a new one with hardware, honoring their guarantee!

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.

I have recently come to know Core 4x4 when I purchased a Jeep XJ and was looking for a place that had dedicated XJ suspension and components. Here is what makes them different than most other shops. All of their components are top shelf quality and they back it up if you break any of it. I was able to see their shop when I picked up an order locally and was impressed with their attention to detail and how they assemble and powder coat each part. I had an issue with a shackle and needed the threaded shaft to be shorter. I called in and talked to Kaden and he told me to come by and they would shorten it for me. When I got there, Kaden and Spencer (the owner) met me and talked about options and proceeded to make the right adjustments to fit my XJ. Told me if anything changes in the future and I need additional length, they would take care of me. So what really sets them apart from others is their Customer Service. Try calling in to any other Jeep suspension or part shop and see how they treat you. Been there - done that. Will continue to do business with Core and their team. Getting that kind of service for just a shackle has me thinking I may need to replace my JT components with Core's. Thanks Guys for being helpful good humans!

Amazing service. Bought a track bar through Americantrucks.com and they sent it with the wrong size bushing sleeve. Korby at Core 4x4 was quick to get me the correct size and very responsive. Will definitely be using more of their stuff.

First and foremost would like to say that Core4x4s customer service is top notch and they definitely stand behind their warranty on products! Highly recommend using them for any of your off road needs! It’s rare to find a company now a days that backs their products and they do! Had a few issues with mounts and control arms and they handled it without hesitation! Thank you!

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.
