APEX Rear Axle Truss for Jeep Gladiator JT 2020+

The JT APEX Rear Axle Truss reinforces the factory rear housing under the Jeep Gladiator JT so it can carry bigger tires, payload, and hard trail landings without bending. Artec's peaked APEX top adds rigidity a flat-top truss cannot match while keeping the part under 10 lbs, and the CNC-bent profile contours to the cast differential and drops onto the axle ready to weld. For a truck that works as hard as a Gladiator does, this is cheap insurance for the rear axle.

Features

• Peaked APEX top profile is more rigid than a flat-top truss design
• CNC laser-cut in-house from 3/16" mild steel, under 10 lbs
• Dimpled holes cut weight while adding stiffness
• CNC-bent long seams mean it drops on the axle and welds, with no multi-piece assembly
• Modeled from Dana and Jeep 3D data for accurate fit and clearance
• Roughly 70% less welding than earlier truss designs, limiting heat warp
• Made in the USA (SKU JT0007)

Fits the 2020-and-up Jeep Gladiator JT factory rear axle housing; it is a bare-steel weld-on part, so paint it after a competent welder runs the beads, alternating sides to control warp. Protect both ends of the truck by pairing it with the JL/JT APEX Front Axle Armor Kit, or if the factory axle is already past its limit, step up to the JT 1-Ton UD80 APEX Rear Axle Swap Kit & Truss.
