Modular Rear Truss - 60

The Artec Modular Rear Truss for the Dana 60 is one of the most versatile trusses available for the common 60 rear axle, and a natural fit for a one-ton swap in the back of a TJ or YJ. It reinforces the housing against hard-use abuse while giving you a flat, low-profile surface to mount your upper links with good suspension geometry.

Key Features

• 3/8" thick mild steel truss top for maximum rigidity
• 1/4" mild steel gussets, interlocked for strength and easy assembly
• Modular layout adapts to a range of link and suspension configurations
• Low-profile height lets upper-link joints sit with ideal geometry, roughly 8 inches from the axle centerline
• Sleek, low-clearance shape is easier to fit under a vehicle and less likely to contact obstacles
• Precision CNC cut and bent for consistent fitment

Fitment & Compatibility

Fits the common Dana 60 rear axle, and is popular for one-ton rear swaps under the Jeep Wrangler TJ and YJ. This is a weld-on, modular truss for custom link suspension builds. Its modularity means it works across a variety of 60-axle setups rather than a single vehicle year.

Frequently Asked Questions

What axle is this for?
It is built for the common Dana 60 rear axle, a favorite for one-ton rear swaps in the TJ and YJ Wrangler.

Why is it called modular?
The truss is designed to adapt to different link and suspension arrangements, so it can serve a wide range of Dana 60 builds instead of a single fixed configuration.

Does it position my link mounts well?
Yes. The low-profile top lets the upper-link joints mount with ideal geometry, about 8 inches from the axle centerline, which helps keep your suspension behaving predictably.

Does it require welding?
Yes. It is a weld-on truss with interlocking, precision-cut pieces that self-locate to ease the weld-up. If you later want to add a hydraulic ram mount to this truss, the Bridge Upgrade Kit for 60 completes that upgrade.
