Stronger Design, Lighter Weight, Easier Install

Artec Industries is excited to announce the JT ONE TON APEX Rear Sterling Truss Swap Kit. This is an advanced truss and bracket system which can be used for Superduty Sterling 10.5 or 10.25. 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 Sterling axle is a great match to the Superduty Front Dana 60 and this is the exactly combo we use in our own Artec Gladiator.

 

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" and 3/16" mild steel for a lightweight yet strong solution...only 55 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 Ford and Jeep for not only an amazing fit but clearances with surrounding components
• 70% 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"& 3/16" 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)

Most 1 ton axles DO NOT MATCH the factory JT 5 lug wheel bolt pattern. New wheels will need to be purchased to do this swap. Brake components NOT INCLUDED in this product, but will be available separately shortly.
