Product Overview
JK 1 Ton - Rear 14 bolt Swap Kit. Artec Industries is excited to announce the JK One Ton Axle Swap Kit For rear Superduty axles. 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 1/4 inch thick truss incorporates a unique design to strengthen both the axle and incorporate the link brackets For ease of installation and added strength.
By incorporating the link mounts into the truss, hours of work and trial and error can be avoided when compared to other bracket systems. Simply tack weld the truss together, place it on the axle and all the other brackets fit into place exactly where they need to be. The 14 bolt axle is available Inch a variety of vehicles over several decades. Inch order For the JK swap to work with factory UCA brackets, the correct width axle must be used. If you are not using factory UCA brackets, but rather a 3-link Style system mounted on the truss, you can choose any width axle you need but take care to ensure its width is close to the front axle.
This axle is referred to as an AAM 14 bolt 10.5 inch ring gear and is found Inch 99-06 GM 2500 and 3500 SRW trucks. Van axles have a different differential offset and will not align the truss correctly. This Kit Is Intended For Use With A Newer Dtyle 14 Bolt Axle With Ribbing On The Casting ( As Shown) And Has A WMS-WMS Measurement Of 68 inch or Greater. 14 bolt axles Do Not Match the factory JK 5 lug wheel bolt pattern. New wheels will need to be purchased to do this swap. Brake components Not included Inch this product, but will be available separately shortly.
