A new era has begun with the arrival of the Apex truss! 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 versions with long weld seams can 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 JK Apex Truss that was secretly tested for over a year and a half 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 JK 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 JK Apex Truss provides it.
Features:

• 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 inch 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 used 3D models directly from Dana Corp and Jeep for not only an amazing fit but 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 not only weight reduction but 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 inch 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
• Differential: Dana 44
• Sold As: Each

Notes:

• Some grinding and fitment may be required when installing this kit. Every axle varies slightly and some fabrication may be required.
• Stock axles have other components that may not hold up to the abuse of larger tires. Artec implies no guarantees that you will not break some component on your stock axles using larger tires. Use at you own risk.
• In rare and extreme cases, the truss may come into contact with oil pan. Prior to operating the vehicle, remove the coil springs, cycle the suspension including full compression of both sides simultaneously and add bumpstop extensions to prevent damage to oil pan.
• This kit is intended for vehicles with at least minor lifts (2.0 Inch and up recommended) and at least 1/2 inch bump stop extensions. Check clearances before installing. Not tested in non-US JKs or right hand drive axles.

We started the Jeep 1 ton Revolution and now we're taking it to the next level. The new APEX swap kit is designed to have a simpler, faster install, with less parts and weight and lower price.

We've worked hard to improve everything, from making the truss easier to weld, to less warping from welding, to optimizing the shock bracket locations and lowering the upper control arm mounts for more clearance and better geometry.

The improvements made have been suggested by our network of dealer/installers who build these kits every day. Now they are a reality. The New 1 Ton APEX Front Swap Kit delivers in every way.

This heavy duty truss and bracket system is designed to take serious abuse and reinforce your entire axle while also providing the factory link, spring, anti-sway bar, and shock locations.

The 3/16 inch thick truss incorporates a unique peaked design to strengthen both the axle and incorporate the link brackets for ease of installation and added strength.

By using the truss to align the link mounts, hours of work and trial and error can be avoided when compared to other bracket systems.

Simply tack weld the truss on the axle, and all the other brackets fit into place exactly where they need to be.
Features include:

• Patent Pending APEX Truss peaked top design provides more rigidity than a flat top truss design
• Significantly lighter weight than comparable junkyard axle housings
• Co-developed with Professional Ultra 4 racer Erik Miller of Miller Motorsports

Take your JK up a level or 3. Premium Front Axle Aluminum 3-link Kit for your JK. For the past 5 years, we've been testing 7075 Aluminum links in the ARTECON to ensure that they could handle the abuse of both extreme, heavy duty rock crawling and normal daily driving. We've been pleased with how they've handled the rigorous abuse and how much weight is saved by using is compared to standard steel tubing.

The JK Front Aluminum 3-Link Kit starts with our ARTEC abuse proven 2.25 inch Outer Diameter, Aerospace grade 7075 Aluminum Lower Links and 2.0 inch Aluminum Upper Links. These are mated with time-tested Rock Krawler brand Krawler Joints with a 1.25 inch thread and 9/16 inch hole and matching jam nuts.

These are the same joints shipped in nearly every Rock Krawler lift kit so you know they stand up to the test of time and abuse...not to mention there are millions of them on the streets. Each link is threaded with both a Right Hand thread and a Left Hand thread at opposite ends so it is easy to adjust the length for fine tuning. We've also included wrench flats on each end of the aluminum link so you can easily tighten your jam nuts without marring the aluminum.

If you already have the steel version of this kit, this is a direct replacement for those links however the rod ends for the steel kit cannot be used with the aluminum lengths because they will not be the correct length.

From there, you can add on additional components to attach the links to the vehicle if you haven't already purchased them previously. To do the full 3-link conversion you will need the HD Crossmember with integrated Link Mounts, the 3-Link Frame Mount Bracket, and the Adjustable Truss Upper Link Mount that attaches to a flat top truss.

This bracket replaces and attaches where the OEM passenger side axle UCA bracket used to be. These components are all offered separately as an add-on item since many have either already purchased some of these items, or some of these brackets are included in other kits such as our JK 1 ton swap kits. If you need everything, just click the check boxes next to the appropriate accessories

If you are using one of our JK 1 Ton Swap Kits, this system works the same you just won't need the Adjustable Truss Upper Link Mount
To complete a full swap, simply add Springs/Shocks or Coilovers, and extended brake lines and you are dialed in!
Included in the kit:

• 3 - RH, 3 - LH - 1.25 inch -12 tpi x 9/16 inch hole Rock Krawler Joints
• 3 - RH, 3 - LH - 1.25 inch -12 tpi Jam Nuts

Take your JK up a level. Premium Aluminum Mid Arm Kit for your JK. For the past 5 years, we've been testing 7075 Aluminum links in the ARTECON to ensure that they could handle the abuse of both extreme, heavy duty rock crawling and normal daily driving. We've been pleased with how they've handled the rigorous abuse and how much weight is saved by using is compared to standard steel tubing.

The JK Aluminum Mid Arm Kit starts with our 2.0 inch outer diameter, aerospace grade 7075 Aluminum lower links front and rear loaded and 1.5 inch OD upper links. The aluminum links are out-fitted with time-tested Rock Krawler brand Krawler Joints with a 1.25 inch thread on the lowers and 7/8 inch thread on the uppers with matching jam nuts.

These are the same joints shipped in nearly every Rock Krawler lift kit so you know they stand up to the test of time and abuse...not to mention there are millions of them on the streets. Each link is threaded with both a Right Hand thread and a Left Hand thread at opposite ends so it is easy to adjust the length for fine tuning. We've also included wrench flats on each end of the aluminum link so you can easily tighten your jam nuts without marring the aluminum.

The real advantage of our aluminum link suspensions is the weight savings. Each link only weighs a few pounds versus steel links which can be dozens of pounds. This weight savings means better fuel mileage, less wear and tear on your vehicle and it's components, easier install and less maintenance.

Aluminum also is naturally rust resistant so you don't have to continually paint them if you scratch them plus aluminum's natural shininess adds so much curb appeal to your vehicle. Springs, shocks, limit straps, sway bar extenstions, extended brake lines, and adjustable tracbars are not included in this kit and will be needed.

Looking to add some style on a budget? Premium Aluminum Lower Link Mid Arm Kit for your JK. For the Past 5 Years, we've been testing 7075 Aluminum links in the ARTECON to ensure that they could handle the abuse of both extreme, heavy duty rock crawling and normal daily driving. We've been pleased with how they've handled the rigorous abuse and how much weight is saved by using is compared to standard steel tubing.

The JK Aluminum Mid Arm Kit starts with our 2.0 inch outer diameter, aerospace grade 7075 Aluminum lower links front and rear but does not include upper links. The aluminum links are out-fitted with time-tested Rock Krawler brand Krawler Joints with a 1.25 inch thread with matching jam nuts.

These are the same joints shipped in nearly every Rock Krawler lift kit so you know they stand up to the test of time and abuse...not to mention there are millions of them on the streets. Each link is threaded with both a Right Hand thread and a Left Hand thread at opposite ends so it is easy to adjust the length for fine tuning. We've also included wrench flats on each end of the aluminum link so you can easily tighten your jam nuts without marring the aluminum.

The real advantage of our aluminum link suspensions is the weight savings. Each link only weighs a few pounds versus steel links which can be dozens of pounds. This weight savings means better fuel mileage, less wear and tear on your vehicle and it's components, easier install and less maintenance.
