TJ 1 TON SUPERDUTY Front 60 Swap Kit

The TJ 1 TON SuperDuty Front 60 Swap Kit provides all the brackets needed to put a Ford Super Duty Dana 60 front axle under a Jeep TJ and its relatives. It relocates the control arm, coil spring, sway bar, and shock mounts to work with your Jeep suspension, turning a heavy one-ton front axle into a bolt-and-weld build rather than a fabrication project.

Key Features

• Complete bracket set to mount a Super Duty front Dana 60 axle, including control arm, coil spring, sway bar, and shock locations.
• Upper control arm brackets sit 3" higher than factory, so adjustable arms may be needed; not compatible with radius arm or wristed Y-link suspensions.
• Coil spring perches are 1.6" wider per side than factory, which may cause the coil springs to bow slightly once installed.
• Shock mounts are 1.6" wider per side to match the coil perches; the axle-side shock brackets delete the bar pin and use a standard 1/2" bolt.
• Sway bar bracket hole sits roughly 2.5" higher than stock, so sway bar modifications may be needed.
• Available with an adjustable truss upper link mount for a 3-link, RockJock Johnny Joints in the factory location, or Daystar bushings in the factory location.

Fitment & Compatibility

Provides the brackets to swap a Ford Super Duty front Dana 60 axle (1999-2004 or 2005+) into the Jeep TJ Wrangler (1997-2006), LJ Wrangler (2003-2006), XJ Cherokee (1984-2001), ZJ Grand Cherokee (1993-1998), and MJ Comanche (1985-1992). Because the axle geometry changes, new tie rod and drag link steering will be required, and exhaust changes may be needed if you choose the 3-link UCA bracket. For a kingpin/ball-joint front 60 instead of the SuperDuty version, see the TJ 1 TON Front 60 Swap Kit. Match it with a one-ton rear such as the Triangulated TJ Sterling 1-ton Swap Kit or Triangulated TJ 14-bolt 1-ton Swap Kit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What axle and Jeeps does this kit cover?
It provides the brackets to swap a Ford Super Duty front Dana 60 (1999-2004 or 2005+) into the TJ (1997-2006), LJ (2003-2006), XJ Cherokee (1984-2001), ZJ Grand Cherokee (1993-1998), and MJ Comanche (1985-1992).

Do I need to change my steering?
Yes. Swapping to the front 60 completely changes the steering geometry, so a new tie rod and drag link will be necessary.

Will I need adjustable control arms?
Likely. The upper control arm brackets are 3" higher than factory, so adjustable arms may be required. The kit is not compatible with radius arm or wristed Y-link suspensions.

What is the difference between the joint options?
You can choose an adjustable truss upper link mount for a 3-link, RockJock Johnny Joints in the factory location, or Daystar bushings in the factory location, depending on how you want the control arms to articulate.

Does installation require welding?
Yes. The bracket set is weld-on. Note that exhaust changes may also be needed if you run the 3-link UCA bracket.
