The Artec Industries JK HD Crossmember with Link Mounts replaces the thin factory transmission crossmember on your Jeep Wrangler JK with a formed 1/4" steel unit that also carries integrated suspension link mounts. Modeled from factory CAD data, it bolts into the stock location while adding the strength and mounting points a serious link or long-arm build needs.
Key Features
- 1/4" thick steel for high-abuse underbody protection, far stronger than the factory stamping
- Integrated link mounts for a rear suspension link or long-arm setup
- Designed from factory CAD files for a precise fit with factory components
- Bolts right in to the stock crossmember location
- CNC laser-cut and CNC-formed for consistent geometry
- Nuts pressed into steel brackets for easy, one-tool removal
- Ships pre-welded so installation is quick, and comes unpainted for easy custom finishing and touch-up
Fitment & Compatibility
Fits the 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK and Unlimited JKU. Offered in two versions to match the JK's transmission crossmember change: 2007-2011 and 2012-2018. Select the version that matches your model year. The integrated link mounts are intended for builds adding rear suspension links; if you don't need link mounts, Artec offers the plain JK HD Crossmember.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which year version do I order?
The 2007-2011 and 2012-2018 versions match the JK's transmission crossmember differences. Order the one for your model year.
Does it bolt in or require welding?
It bolts right in to the factory crossmember location. It is designed from factory CAD files and ships pre-welded, so no fabrication is required to install it.
What are the link mounts for?
The integrated link mounts give you a strong anchor for adding rear suspension links, which is useful on long-arm and custom link builds.
Why is it unpainted?
It ships bare so you can finish it to match your build and easily touch up any scratches. Pair it with the Artec JK Under Armor Bellypan Kit for full underbody protection.
