Perfect Fit

This is the 2nd Artec truss that I have installed on a Superduty axle the 1st was the original style which fit well but definitely took a lot longer to install. The new apex truss went together easy and was less welding than the previous design. Install is pretty straight forward. Ill definitely be ordering an apex truss for my 14 soon.

2 BIG thumbs up for the Artec APEX front Superduty truss. I recently installed a 2007 Superduty 60 into the front of my 2007 JK. Once the hard work of cleaning the brackets off the axle was done installing this truss was a breeze. It required much less welding (still a lot of welding) than the previous trusses and I love the low profile. The instructions could have been better and you do need to heat the cast before welding to it but it looks and works amazing. If I were to do it again I would move the lower shock mount outward about .5 for better shock clearance. Other than that I love it.
