The Artec Industries Dodge Front 60 Hydro Ram Mount & Truss reinforces the Dodge front Dana 60 axle while providing a rigid, correctly angled mount for a full-hydraulic steering ram. It combines a heavy 3/8" steel truss top that stiffens the housing with a 1/4" ram mount tied in by a bridge, protecting one of the most vital and expensive systems on a hard-wheeled rig, the steering.
Key Features
- 3/8" thick mild steel truss top for maximum housing reinforcement
- 1/4" mild steel ram mount and gussets
- Ram mount angled correctly to account for Dodge knuckles
- Ram mount tied into the truss with a 1/4" thick bridge that also shields the ram from trail damage
- Low-profile truss lets link joints mount with ideal geometry, about 8 inches from the axle centerline
- Truss spans the entire axle length for complete tube reinforcement, reinforced with interlocked 1/4" gussets
Fitment & Compatibility
Designed for the Dodge front Dana 60 axle, with the ram mount angled specifically for Dodge knuckles. It is intended for builds running full-hydraulic steering and a linked front suspension. This is a weld-on truss and ram mount that requires welding and fabrication to install.

Frequently Asked Questions
What axle is this made for?
The Dodge front Dana 60. The ram mount is angled to account for the Dodge knuckles so the steering ram sits at the correct angle.
Is this only for full-hydro steering?
The integrated ram mount is designed for a full-hydraulic steering ram. If you only need the housing reinforcement without the ram mount, look at the Dodge 60 Front Truss.
Does it require welding?
Yes. The truss, bridge, and ram mount all weld to the axle housing and require proper welding and fabrication.
How does the bridge protect my steering?
The 1/4" bridge ties the ram mount to the truss and physically shields the hydraulic ram from rock and trail damage. Complete the system with a Dana 60 full-hydro mounting kit.
