JT 1 Ton Rear 14 Bolt Swap Kit (OEM Brackets) Artec Industries

The new APEX Truss and Brackets for swapping in a AAM 14 bolt 10.5 rear axle into a Jeep JT Gladiator 2020 and up.

Artec Industries is excited to announce the JT One Ton APEX Rear 14 bolt Truss Swap Kit. This is an advanced truss and bracket system which can be used for AAM 14 bolt 10.5 inch ring gear.

This kit provides the factory link, trackbar, spring, anti-sway bar, bump stop pads and shock locations all encompassed in an axle tube reinforcing truss system. The 14 bolt axle is a great match to the Superduty Front Dana 60 however there are some considerations to take into account.
Features include:

• Patent pending APEX Truss peaked top design provides more rigidity than a flat top truss design
• CNC Precision Laser cut in-house from 1/4 inch and 3/16 inch mild steel for a lightweight yet strong solution only 42 lbs total
• 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 GMFord 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
• Dimpled holes provide not only weight reduction but rigidity and strength
• Contours both the cast steel differential and can be welded with normal MIG welder and moderate pre-heating and post-heating
• Two piece truss design means smaller packaging and less shipping costs along with easy installation
• Using a 1 ton axle will support larger tires and less chance of breakage in extreme conditions
• Coil brackets and bump stop pads are combined to form an axle tube truss and allows for easy installment of other brackets
• Precision CNC cut from 1/4 inch& 3/16 inch steel for high strength and precision and CNC bent for great fitment.*
• Includes all the brackets necessary for a complete axle swap including upper and lower control arm mounts, shock mounts, anti-sway bar mounts, trackbar mount, bumpstop pads and coil spring mounts.
• Save hours of installation time with the built-in axle tube truss which is quicker to weld than individual brackets
• Tracbar mount includes 3 locations for those who have aftermarket lifts. Stock height hole is not included though.
• Easily upgradeable for future link geometry changes. Just trim off factory location upper control mounts and weld on a center link mount (not included)
• Material: Steel
• Truss: AAM 14 Bolt
• Sold As: Kit

Important Notes for 14 Bolt:

• The 14 bolt axle is available in a variety of vehicles over several decades. For best results for the JT swap, the correct width axle should be used. Older 14 bolt axles will not work with ABS brackets we offer either.
• This kit is intended for use with a newer style 14 bolt axle with ribbing on the casting and has a WMS-WMS measurement of 68 inch or greater. This axle is referred to as an AAM 14 bolt 10.5 inch ring gear and is found in 1999-2006 GM 2500 and 3500 SRW trucks. Van axles have a different differential offset and will not align the truss correctly.
• This kit does not include any parts for ABS sensors. It is only a bracket kit. Hooking up and configuring these sensors is the responsibility of the end user.
