Artec Industries JK APEX front axle armor kits strengthen and protect the weakest parts of your factory axle.

Product details:
• Patent pending APEX truss peaked top design provides more rigidity than a flat top truss design
• Truss is CNC precision laser-cut in-house from 1/8 in. mild steel for a lightweight yet strong solution—only 7 lbs.
• Truss is CNC precision-bent in-house for a great fitment; literally drop the truss in place on the axle and it's ready to weld—no puzzle piece assembling
• Designed using 3-D models directly from Dana Corp and Jeep for an amazing fit and clearances with surrounding components
• 70 percent 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—an industry first
• Dimpled holes provide weight reduction, rigidity, and strength
• Contours to the cast steel differential and can be welded with normal MIG welder and moderate pre-heating and post-heating
• Provides worry-free wheeling of up to 37 in. tires on stock JK axles
• Truss strengthens the weakest sections of the axle—under the coil perches, around the control arm brackets, and where the tube enters the casting
• Low-profile design doesn't go over differential and allows usage in vehicles with only slight lift
• Front LCA skids, inner C-gussets, and HD tracbar brackets are made from 1/4 in. steel
• Skids, gussets, and brackets strengthen or replace weak components of the axle that are prone to failure
