This is a standard rear-half kit — it includes the rear frame brackets, upper and lower adjustable control arms, 4-link axle truss, and all hardware. The longer arm geometry reduces rear suspension angles at lift height compared to short arm geometry, resulting in a smoother on-road ride, greater off-road articulation, and reduced wear on related components. The frame-end joints are Currie Johnny Joints — 40° of unrestricted movement with Tough 88 urethane casing for shock absorption and NVH isolation. The axle-end joints are GIIRO dual-durometer bushings — maintenance-free, self-centering, and NVH-isolating. The 4-link axle truss reinforces the rear axle tube at the control arm mount locations. No welding required. For the Pro Series version with double-adjustable arms and weld-on brackets, see COR-4805017.
