TECHNICAL DETAILS

For JL D44 M210 front axle (Rubicon)
All JT front axles
APEX peaked top design provides more rigidity than a flat top truss design
CNC Precision Laser cut from 1/8" mild steel for a lightweight yet strong solution - 6 lbs
CNC Precision Bent for a great fitment
Literally drop the truss in place on the axle and it's ready to weld
Designed used 3D models directly from Dana Corp and Jeep for not only an amazing fit but clearances with surrounding components
70% less welding needed than previous truss designs means less warping, faster turnaround, and lower costs
All long seams are bent so you don't need to spend time welding them together
APEX design continues under the OEM coil buckets for complete end-to-end axle reinforcement
Dimpled holes provide not only weight reduction but rigidity and strength
Contours both the cast steel differential and FAD (front axle disconnect) and can be welded with normal MIG welder and moderate pre-heating and post-heating
Provides worry-free wheeling of up to 40 inch tires on stock JL axles
Bridges the Front Axle Disconnect (FAD/CAD) which has shown to be one of the weakest sections of the front axle
Low Profile Design doesn't go over differential and allows usage in vehicles with only slight lift
Some grinding and fitment may be required when installing this kit. Every axle varies slightly and some fabrication may be required
This kti is intended for vehicles with atleast minor lifts (1.5" minimum recommended)
Atleast 1/2" bump stop extension is required
Check clearance before installing
Not tested on non-US modles or right hand drive axels
This kit requires general welding and fabrication skills including welding to the cast center section. Welding should only be done by a competent welder. Artec Industries implies no guarantees or warranties and is not liable for improper installation

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Artec Industries is proud to announce the next generation of PATENT PENDING axle trusses. This series of trusses not only builds on our experience as the world leader in axle truss design, it brings it to a whole new level of cost savings, strength, weight savings, simplicity of installation, precision fitment, and complete axle protection never before seen in the industry.
The key feature that sets the APEX truss apart is its unique peaked shape top which provides extra rigidity to the whole truss while allowing both a reduction in weight (vs using a thicker material top) and eliminating long weld seams. Previous version with long weld seams which can be lead to extra weld warping of the axle, longer install times and can be inconsistent. This peaked structure not only applies to the axle tube between the coil perches but extends underneath the coil perches as well, forming a complete truss from end to end of axle, an industry first in an OEM axle application. The APEX Front Axle Truss is based off of a JK APEX Truss that was secretly tested for over a year proving that even though the truss is lighter weight, the peaked structure of the truss holds up to both extreme applications and daily driving.

The new APEX Front Axle Truss is the epitome of low cost, easy and quick to weld, simple, strong, and complete solutions for making your factory Jeep axle take more abuse than originally intended. You want easy insurance for your axle? The APEX Truss provides it.
