Artec Industries 70-85 Ford F-1509 Inch Rear Apex Short Truss

Artec Industries proudly introduces the APEX Truss, the next generation of PATENTED axle trusses. This truss sets a new standard in cost savings, strength, weight savings, simplicity of installation, precision fitment, and complete axle protection. The unique peaked shape top provides extra rigidity while reducing weight and eliminating long weld seams, resulting in faster and more consistent installation. The APEX truss is the heart of the APEX 1 ton swap kits for JK, JL, and JT, improving rigidity and allowing for mounting upper links over the differential. Fits SPIDERTRAX axle housings with centered differentials and may fit other fabricated 9 inch housings.

• PATENTED APEX design for extra rigidity and less welding
• CNC Precision Laser cut from 3/16" mild steel, lightweight yet strong (only 11 lbs)
• CNC Precision Bent for great fitment, drop-in-place installation with no puzzle assembling
• 3D modeled for a precise fit and clearances with surrounding components
• 70% less welding needed than previous truss designs, reduces warping, turnaround time, and cost
• Contours to the differential, suitable for chromoly housings with special weld rod and pre/post-heating
• Low profile design allows ideal geometry for link joint mounting and fits between leaf springs
• Stronger, sleeker, easier to fit, and less interference with vehicle components
• Made in the USA

Notes : This truss is very form fitting to the contours of the casting. Due to variances in axles of this axle over the years, some trimming may be necessary on the truss and non-essential parts of the casting.
Notes : This kit requires general welding and fabrication skills. Welding should only be done by a competent welder. Artec Industries implies no guarantees or warranties and is not liable for improper installation.
