  • 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

9 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.

Good Product

Put it on a 78 Bronco 9 and looks really sick. Alittle beating and banging to have it sitting right but really nice product.

Awesome truss!

I put this on a Currie Housing and it needed very little modification. Overall the truss is lean low profile and looks like it came from Currie. Fit and finish could not have been better.

Q

will this fit 3" tube?

A — Staff (Artec Team): This truss is designed around a Spidertrax fabricated 9" housing, which is set up with 3.5"axle tubes. You will need to do a bit of fill welding to make this fit an axle with 3.0" tubes.
